In a desolate and dilapidated old temple in the mountains, although there is no sign of human traffic for a long time, it is strange that in the middle of the night, the sound of women playing and slapping can be heard, which sounds very charming and seductive.

In the past, some hunters and woodcutters often did not dare to approach this place at will, and even if the voices of the women were tempting, they at most only glanced at it from a distance and did not dare to go over.

Because they've heard from people who have strayed into this place, and it's full of female ghosts and monsters who eat people and don't spit out bones! Don't look at the skins that are good-looking, but they are ruthless, how can they withstand them with the foundation of ordinary people?

At this time, the sun had gradually sunk in the west, and there were two woodcutters in a mountain forest near Nalanruo Temple, who were about to be tired of chopping wood, and were sitting on the ground to rest, planning to return after recovering some strength.

After all, this mountain is not suitable for an overnight stay. Not only those ferocious beasts, but also those man-eating ghosts and demons, it is a little scary to think about.

Suddenly, at this time, there was a faint movement between the trees that should have been quiet in the distance, which made the two of them immediately tense up after being stunned, and carefully carried their axes, worried that it was some wild beast approaching.

But unexpectedly, when the leaves were removed, what was revealed in front of them was just a handsome-looking young scholar, carrying a book basket behind his back, and his demeanor was very kind, not like some evil person.

The two of them put their minds at ease, since they are human beings, they don't have to worry too much.

It's just a little strange why such a weak scholar would appear in this mountain forest at this time.

At this time, the young scholar also noticed someone's voice, glanced left and right, and after seeing them, his face was happy, and he also took the initiative to come forward and hug his fists and ask: "Dare to ask the two eldest brothers, but the Lanruo Temple is in front of here?" ”

"Lanruo Temple?"

The two woodcutters looked at each other in some astonishment, and looked at him strangely.

"You said you were going to Lanruo Temple?"

"Not bad. To tell you the truth, I am going to study in a neighboring county, and the time is quite urgent, so I can't afford to delay it easily. The man smiled and pointed to the mountain range in the distance, "It's not early now, and I have to continue my journey tomorrow morning, I heard that there is a Lanruo Temple here that is quite famous, so I plan to stay here for one night......"

"Oops! Little brother, this is absolutely not good! ”

When the two woodcutters heard this, their faces changed, and they immediately stretched out their hands to dissuade them.

Seeing that he was indeed ignorant, he kindly persuaded bitterly: "You are from other places and don't know, Nalanruo Temple is very evil, but we have heard that many people have seen a lot of monsters in it!" ”

"That's right, those female ghosts are scary! They all have green fangs, their tongues are longer than their necks, and their nails are sharper than our axes......"

The woodcutter, as if afraid that he would not believe him, gestured with his hands, as if to prove how terrible he was.

As soon as they finished speaking, they found that the young scholar in front of them was not afraid, but asked curiously: "Oh? The Nalan Ruo Temple you are talking about is really full of female ghosts? You guys...... Who has seen it with their own eyes? ”

The two woodcutters were stunned and shook their heads.

"This ...... We hadn't seen it with our own eyes, but others had spread it like this, and the most daring hunter in our village had gone for a walk around the Nalanruo Temple, and ran out in the middle of the night, screaming that there were ghosts and ghosts, and it took several days to regain his senses. ”

"How can this still be fake?!"

The woodcutter was also a little unconvinced, and argued with the facts.

"That's right, that kind of Orion is strong and scared, if a weak scholar like you walks in, I'm afraid that you will be eaten to the bones!"

As soon as the words fell, they heard the sound of the scholar laughing, which made them even more confused.

"You ignorant scholar, we kindly advised you not to go to a dead end, but what are you laughing at?"

"Most of what you've heard is that people are terrified, but have you ever heard of someone being eaten by a ghost there?" The scholar restrained his smile and asked meaningfully.

"Or was there a body that was brought out of there?"

"This ...... Not really. The two were dumbfounded by the question for a while.

Because all they usually hear is that the ghosts scare people, but it is unheard of to say who died at the hands of this ghost.

But a woodcutter was still a little unconvinced: "How do you know that 1 no one we know has died there?" How do we know if an unwitting person like you spends the night there in the dead of night, and the next day the person disappears. ”

The scholar didn't refute it, and nodded: "That's true." But I am a scholar below, and I believe that if I don't do bad things, I am not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, even if there are really female ghosts, I am not afraid. ”

After that, he hugged his fists and thanked the two of them, lifted the book basket again, and planned to continue walking.

The two woodcutters were angry when they saw that he didn't listen to their persuasion, but seeing that he really wanted to go to Lanruo Temple wholeheartedly, one of the woodcutters was still a little unbearable, and stepped forward to stop him.

"Hey, little brother, you are so weak, I'm afraid you won't be able to withstand the tricks of a female ghost. I'll give you this axe for self-defense, and I hope to see you alive tomorrow. ”

The scholar was a little surprised, hesitated for a moment, but still took the axe he handed over gratefully: "Then thank you to this big brother, I believe that there will be good rewards......

His tone was sincere, as if to foreshadow something.

It's just that the woodcutter didn't understand, so he just shook his head and said helplessly: "Alas, don't say anything good to repay, it's a blessing that you, an ignorant little scholar, can come out alive." ”

He felt that a human life must be much more important than an axe.

Soon after the scholar said goodbye to them, his footsteps towards the deep mountains suddenly paused, and he turned his head to look at the figures of the two woodcutters who were gradually getting farther and smaller at the bottom of the mountain, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned.

"Sure enough, there are still a lot of good people......"

"This axe will bring you good luck......

This scholar was the incarnation of Du Bai, who had rushed over from the Su family's old mansion before.

But out of order to investigate whether Nie Xiaoqian had followed the agreement with herself to restrain the female ghosts below, she did not choose to go with great fanfare, but turned into this inconspicuous appearance.

And the two woodcutters just wanted to test the reaction among the nearby villagers.

Judging by the results so far, it seems to be okay.

"But this kind of problem of liking people casually has to be taught well." Du Bai frowned slightly, then let go, put the axe in his hand on the ground, and then touched the ground between his fingers.

Then I saw a few small monsters with thieves and rat eyes "gooing" out of the ground, respectfully kneeling down in front of him like courtiers worshipping the king.

This crushing disparity in strength alone was enough to make them fearful and not dare to resist in the slightest.

"You're going to bring some fortune to the owner of this axe, but it doesn't have to be much, understand?"

As soon as the command came out, these little goblins immediately joined hands and carried the axe together, swaying left and right and slowly sinking into the ground, probably to help run errands.

In a situation like this, a random piece of antique property buried in the ground is enough to improve the woodcutter's life a lot, and any more is not good.
