Chapter 322: The Ghost's Request
What is it? Is there such a thing in the world?
After listening to this, I was very puzzled, looked at the middle-aged soldier and asked, "Do you know what it is?" ”
He shook his head and said that over the years, we had tried to climb the hill countless times, but there was no way to get closer, and the invisible coercion made it difficult for us to move an inch.
Then he told us that after so many years, he had also met people who came here to collect medicine and the like, but every time he asked them for help, he would scare these people half to death, and after a long time, no one came to this place anymore.
No wonder this wooden house is empty, it turns out that the person who built it was also scared away, right?
Even if these people are not heroes who made great achievements back then, but some ordinary people, I have the responsibility to help them, not to mention that looking at Uncle Wang's expression now, he has obviously made up his mind to help, even if I don't agree, he will fight for it.
"Everyone is of the same ancestry, and it is the right thing to help you, but now that it is late at night, can we wait for us to go to the top of the mountain during the day tomorrow?" I asked, looking at the middle-aged soldier.
He had a surprised look on his face, and said of course it's okay, you are willing to help us, we are already grateful to Dade, what is there to wait for this night?
Since this is the case, I was ready to go back to rest, but seeing that Uncle Wang seemed to want to talk more with the officer, I said, "Uncle Wang, if you have any questions to ask them, just talk outside first, and I'll go back and rest first." ”
"Okay, you can go back." Uncle Wang said happily.
Then I went back to the room with Kabu, it's not that I don't have the blood of a soldier like Uncle Wang, and I worship the heroes of the anti-Japanese resistance back then, but I have a lot of things in my heart now, and I will go up the mountain tomorrow to break the ban there, although I don't know how much time it will take, but the purpose of arriving at the mission site before dark will definitely not be achieved, how can we speed up our march?
When I was about to fall asleep in a daze, Uncle Wang walked in happily and whispered to me, "Ginger tea, can you come out for a while?" ”
I quickly rolled over and sat up, not knowing what was happening, and quickly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"There's good news for you." Uncle Wang suppressed his excitement and said.
I couldn't help but be very curious, he chatted with the ghost of the middle-aged soldier for a while, should it be said that the country has changed over the years, right? What's the good news?
I got up and followed him to the outside of the house, only to find that the ghosts had left, only the middle-aged soldier was still there, he nodded to me and said, "I didn't know that you were the leader of this place, girl, it was rude,"
I smiled and looked at Uncle Wang before asking him, "What do you have to tell me?" ”
The middle-aged soldier said that after chatting with this commander just now, I realized that you are going to deal with some bad people, and in order to repay you for saving our souls, I think we can help you.
I was stunned for a moment, turned my head and looked at Uncle Wang suspiciously, he quickly explained: "This senior has to talk to me about the level according to his rank, so he called me sir, after they died, they stayed here for seventy years, absorbing the sun and moon every day, and they already have a certain amount of cultivation, if we borrow the prohibition on the top of the mountain tomorrow, they can become a powerful reinforcement." ”
So that's the case, I didn't expect these ghosts to have their own cultivation, and I thought they were just ordinary ghosts, although seventy years is not a long time for the cultivation of ghosts, but there are a lot of them, this is indeed a good helper for us to deal with that Yun Lotte!
However, I thought about it again and said to the middle-aged soldier: "You may already know that we are dealing with cultivators in the human world, and what they are best at is dealing with ghosts. ”
He laughed and said that we have been here for seventy years, and we have all thought clearly, if we didn't know how to commit suicide as ghosts, some of us would have been gone.
Maybe I don't understand their psychology, maybe I've been stuck in this place for seventy years and I'd have the same thoughts?
Thinking of this, I nodded, and said Okay, then it's hard for you and everyone, and if there is a battle, you can participate again, if not, then you can get out of here quickly.
… …
… …
The next morning, I called everyone together and told me about the events of last night, not everyone slept so soundly, but the whole story was heard from my mouth.
After I finished speaking, Lin Yue was the first to jump up and said What are you waiting for, let's hurry up the mountain, how can there be something forbidden to ghosts in this barren mountain range?
I said I think it's strange too, if you don't object, let's go up the mountain now.
It's nothing more than lifting a ban, and we don't need to go out with all of our troops, so only Kabu and our group of five will set off, and the rest will stay and rest for a while, and we'll talk about it when we get back.
There were already dewdrops in the mountains and forests in the early morning, and our clothes were wet after not going far, but in order to help the souls of so many dead heroes, what was this bitterness?
The six of them were moving at a fast pace, and in half an hour we were halfway up the mountain, but the rest of the road was difficult, for the mountain was now bare and rocky, and it was much steeper than we had seen below, and in some places it was a hundred degrees above the ground.
With such a reverse angle, even a professional climber may not have a way to climb it with his bare hands, right? When we came here, we immediately started to worry, how should this be?
"Don't worry, since someone can set a ban on the top of the mountain, there must be a way to go up, but we haven't found it, let's look for it." I said to the people.
The mountain covers a large area, and our location is only a point, and the whole halfway up the mountain is at least a few kilometers long, and I don't believe that there is no road to the top.
But after an hour of searching for errors, we still couldn't find the way up the mountain, according to Kab, as long as I gave him my dagger, he could force his way up to the mountain, but I was not at ease, what if he was in danger alone?
"Why don't you try it from the hole you just found, maybe that's the way to the top of the mountain?" Lin Yue suggested,
When we searched before, we did see a small cave, we had to bend down to enter, everyone thought it was just a natural cave, and from the visible part of the cave, it seemed that the trend in it was downward, so no one cared.
There was no choice now, so we had to try from there, so we went back to the cave.
Of course, I was the first person to enter, followed by Qian Enhao and others, and Kabu was placed at the back of the line.
It's a pity that when we went up the mountain, we didn't think about drilling the cave at all, so we didn't bring lighting equipment, and we didn't have anything to make light out of the fire charm in our hands.
After everyone entered the cave, they immediately felt a coolness, and the temperature here was much lower than outside.
Everyone took turns throwing fire charms to light the way ahead, and walked along the cave that was not too wide.
As I walked, the cave gradually felt like it was rising, and I thought to myself, it seems that we have chosen the right one, and this is really the road to the top of the mountain!
So our pace gradually accelerated, and the more we walked, the more we felt the elevation of the terrain. I don't know how much time passed, but we finally reached the entrance of the cave.
There was a strong light coming in, and it was difficult to see the outside scene, but there was sunlight, which meant that this place led to the outside, and everyone walked out without hesitation.
When we got outside, we let out a cheer, and we had indeed reached the top of the hill, and a platform that looked like our castle in the mountains appeared in front of us.
It's just that the place is a little smaller, but it's still very similar in appearance.
"Let's look each other and see what is suppressing the ghosts." I say to everyone.
Several people scattered and searched the platform, and after a few moments, someone shouted, "Here! Come on! ”
The person who made the voice was Yang Ning, who looked down at his feet with a very surprised look.
When a few of us had passed, we were just as surprised to see that scene, because Yang Ning's feet were surrounded by a circle of stones, and in the center was a white bead the size of a tennis ball.
"What is this?" Lin Yue bent down and wanted to pick it up, but I quickly stopped him.
Dare to touch it without even knowing what it is, it's too bold, right?
I thought about it for a moment and decided to try it with my dagger and push the bead to see if it was still connected to the ground, it shouldn't be able to push.
I didn't dare to push with the tip of the dagger, for fear of breaking the bead, so I had to use the side, but with a light touch, the bead rolled to the side.
Everyone looked at each other, and couldn't figure out whether it was this bead that was suppressing the ghost, the thing was snow-white, and it looked very much like porcelain, and the difference between it and something like jade was quite big, if it wasn't for it, then what else could be done here?
I asked everyone to search the mountain again, but they found nothing, and there was nothing in the gravel accident.
"In this case, break this bead first, if it is really it, then the ghost below will definitely feel it, if not, we will find a way in the afternoon." I say to everyone.
They nodded and said they would all listen to you, so I took the dagger and stabbed the bead hard.
Something strange happened, the dagger sank into the bead without any problems, but instead of cracking, it melted like white chocolate, and by the time I tried to pull the dagger back, it had melted completely, and then burrowed into the dagger.
Everyone is blind, and my heart is very painful, my precious dagger will not be broken, right?
