If a special practitioner came here, they could say that there was some secret organization here. Whether it's a decent or a cult, they need to be more careful.

But if they are rich and come up to the mountains from time to time, then they must have come here for a purpose, or they have come here to do a specific thing, and they have done it many times.

Mu Ling couldn't help but guess: "What are they doing here regularly?" Treasure digging? Buried treasure? Or is it something missing? ”

But none of that seems to be quite appropriate.

"Whatever they do, maybe we'll find out when we go up." Liang Chu sneered, "It just so happens that they didn't come over today, so you don't have to fight them." ”

Thinking about it, Mu Ling was much more relieved.

It's not that I'm afraid of what the other party is, it's just that if I don't run into it, I can have a lot less trouble.

Since someone has been here, it means that there is nothing terrible on this mountain, and the original rumors are just rumors.

The further up it went, it got colder, but there were fewer weeds, and the road began to flatten.

Without much effort, the two climbed to the top of the mountain, and when Mu Ling looked up, he saw that there was a large flat land at the top of the mountain, and at the edge of the flat land, a peach tree grew.

"There really is a peach tree!"

It seems that although some things are false, the essence will not change in the end.

The peach trees are very large, and although the climate on the top of the hill is a little colder, they grow very luxuriantly, lush like a large car canopy, casting a large area of shade.

Mu Ling walked over and looked up to see a lot of peaches on the tree.

Most of the peaches were green, only a few had begun to ripen, and their pink glow seemed to tempt people to eat them.

"Don't those people come here regularly just to see these peaches, right?"

Mu Ling reached out and picked one, looked left and right, and hesitated to take a bite.

This peach is somewhat like a modern peach variety, but there is still fluff on the surface, if you don't wash it and bite it down, I'm afraid you will have to bite a mouthful of hair.

As he hesitated, he stretched out a hand and took the peach away.

Mu Ling's eyes followed the peach, and saw Liang Chu holding a peach in one hand and a dagger in the other, neatly peeling the peach.

"You ......" Mu Ling's eyes widened, "Have you seen blood on this dagger?" ”

If she'd seen blood, she'd not be interested in eating it again.

Liang Chu raised his eyes and glanced at her, a doting smile on the corner of his lips. A few ups and downs in his hand, but in the blink of an eye, he peeled the peach and handed it over: "Let's see if it's delicious." ”

Mu Ling took a bite of the peach, and immediately squinted his eyes in enjoyment: "It's not bad." ”

"Then I'll pick some more." Liang Chu wiped the dagger clean with a handkerchief, "This is a new one for you, although it is not as good as the original one, but it is easy to peel." ”

"Huh?"

Her original dagger was originally used to peel pineapples, but later when she encountered danger, she subconsciously took it out to kill people. I always wanted to get it again, but I always forgot, but I didn't expect him to be silently preparing.

I lowered my head and took another bite of the peach, and the peach in my mouth seemed to be sweeter than Fang Cai.

Looking up again and seeing Liang Chu looking at her with a burning eye, Mu Ling was evil-hearted, reached out and took the dagger, cut a small piece of peach flesh and stuffed it into his mouth: "You can eat it too." ”

A cool and sweet fragrance invades the mouth, unexpectedly but very sweet.

Liang Chu chewed it twice and thought it was very good: "You can pick some back, let's see if there is anything on the top of this mountain-"

Before he finished speaking, he got stuck.

Mu Ling took a bite of the peach before probing over: "What's wrong?" Ahh

Looking around him, he saw a low-lying place on the top of the mountain not far away. At first, I was attracted by the peach tree and didn't pay attention, but at this time, I couldn't help but turn a little pale.

This low-lying area was dug out, and it can be seen that the pit has been dug for a long time. There are dead people lying in a pit inside, there is no discipline, there are lying in any position, and at a glance, you can know that they have been thrown into it at will.

Because of the climate on the top of the mountain, there seems to be some medicinal herbs sprinkled in the pit, and the dead people in this pit have not yet decomposed, and the smell is not big.

Mu Ling subconsciously took a deep breath, but there was still some mixed smell of corpses and medicinal herbs in the air, mixed with the cold breath on the top of the mountain, and it suddenly seemed very subtle.

Suddenly, Mu Ling paused, and he didn't have time to finish his breath.

"I see, don't look at it." Liang Chu sighed lightly and turned to cover her eyes.

Mu Ling suddenly felt very unpleasant, the peaches in his mouth also lost their taste, and he didn't know what to do when he held it in his hand that he hadn't finished eating.

The peach tree was on the top of the mountain, and it was still a long way from the grave.

But these two things can't stand it, it seems to be in one place, and it can't be said that this peach also absorbed the nutrients of the corpse pit, so it grew so strong, and it only then did it bear such a big fruit.

At this time, Mu Ling finally understood what the man said when he was halfway up the mountain, what is called the peach tree demon.

This peach tree, sure enough, someone is doing a demon!

Throwing the peach down from the other side, Mu Ling still had palpitations: "Those who come up from time to time won't come up to throw this corpse, right?" I see that these corpses are all women, disheveled and there are some traces of abuse on the corpses, this can't be the ...... of Qinglou."

"Quite possibly." Liang Chu said in a deep voice.

There are the most women in the Qinglou, and they are engaged in such a profession, not to mention anything else, even if they meet some guests with special hobbies, it is not uncommon to be tortured to death.

It's just that this amount is very weird.

Even if the life of a woman in the Qinglou is threatened, she has the right to report it to the official. Torture a Qinglou woman to death, that is also to be sentenced.

Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Mu Ling exhaled a breath of turbidity: "We have to hurry down the mountain to contact the government to deal with this matter, and we didn't hide any traces when we went up the mountain." Maybe the people who abandoned these corpses already knew, maybe they had sent someone to surround us. ”

"If only someone really came." Liang Chu sneered, protected her in his arms, and then called the secret guard to guard here, "Let's go down the mountain to have a look, and call someone from the government to come up and deal with this matter later." ”

That's the best way to go.

Mu Ling nodded, and followed him two steps, but he suddenly stopped: "But you still want to pick some peaches?" ”

Who is still in the mood to pick peaches at this time!

Mu Ling suddenly glanced at him angrily, she was in the mood to pick it, and she was not in the mood to eat it.
