When Li Changsheng and Jia Ye returned to the shop, they only saw Linglong with a frightened look on her face.

Seeing Li Changsheng and Jia Ye coming back with the corpses, Linglong breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly ran forward, and said, "After you left just now, an old woman came here. ”

"Ghost Gu Mother-in-law?" Li Changsheng and Jia Ye looked at each other, dumbfounded.

Linglong nodded and said, "She said that her passer-by wanted to come in the shop to rest for a while, and I was scared...... Didn't dare to open the door. ”

Li Changsheng said: "It's right not to open the door...... I laid a formation and a spell in the shop, and it would not be easy for her to break in if she wanted to break in. ”

Jia Ye looked at the dozens of corpses behind him and asked, "Daochang Li, what should we do now?" ”

At this time, the sky was already dark, the moon above the night sky was completely hidden, and the five fingers could not be seen in the mountains and forests, only the cries of insects and birds could be heard.

Li Changsheng took a deep breath and said: "We are in the light, the ghost Gu mother-in-law and others are in the dark, this entire barren mountain is their territory, the longer we stay here, the easier it is to fall into their trap, the top priority is to take advantage of the dawn to drive the corpse to the village." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Changsheng looked around the shop and said to Linglong: "You light the lantern and walk ahead, Jia Ye is responsible for holding the guiding bell and directing the corpse." ”

"Okay." Linglong and Jia Ye nodded hurriedly.

Now, whatever Li Changsheng says, Jia Ye will do it, and after seeing Li Changsheng's Taoism, Jia Ye admires Li Changsheng in his heart.

If you want to live safely in this barren mountain, you can only do what Li Changsheng said now.

It was very safe to stay in this small shop, but when it was dawn, the corpse would not be able to walk, and it would not be possible to hide in this small shop all the time.

The three of them left the shop, drove all the corpses, and headed for the depths of the dense forest.

The silent night seems to be more and more profound.

Along the way, the three of them were very cautious, for fear of any accidents.

Daochang Li ...... If this ghost Gu mother-in-law doesn't show up, haven't we been under her surveillance all the time? Jia Ye is old and experienced, so he naturally knows the powerful relationship, and along the way, he asked.

Li Changsheng frowned, and the same was true of what he was worried about.

If he was walking on his own, then even in this barren mountain, he didn't have a trace of fear, and the ghost Gu mother-in-law couldn't help him at all. But now that Linglong and Jia Ye are also there, there are still this pile of corpses, even after the corpses are sent back to the village, they still have to worry about the ghost Gu mother-in-law doing trouble, so many people and things, Li Changsheng can't take care of them all, as long as the ghost Gu mother-in-law is not eliminated for a day, it is very likely to endanger other innocent people.

Li Changsheng took a deep breath and said: "I can only take one step at a time, and now I can't find the old witch, even if I want to deal with her, there is no way, and we are in this barren mountain, very passive." ”

The mountain road at night was very difficult, especially at this moment, the three of them had entered the hinterland of the barren mountains, and the mountain road here was ten times more difficult than before.

Many of the mountain roads are not smooth at all, with potholes, high and low, and along the way, you have to guard against snakes, insects, rats and ants, and the road is very slow.

Fortunately, among the three of them, Jia Ye often goes in and out of the barren mountains, and he is very familiar with the roads.

After about an hour, the three of them heard the sound of the gurgling stream, although the fog at night was very thick, and they couldn't see the road ahead clearly for a while, but when they heard the sound of the stream, Jia Ye immediately knew where the three of them were.

Li Changsheng glanced at Jia Ye on the side and said, "How long will it take to get to the village?" ”

Jia Ye's face showed a solemn look, and he said: "There is still some distance from the village, but I heard the sound of this mountain stream flowing by, as long as I walk deeper for a while, there will be a place to rest." ”

"A place to rest?" Linglong's face showed a hint of joy, and said, "Is it a small shop where corpse chasers rest?" ”

Jia Ye was stunned, but he shook his head and said, "How can there be so many small shops?" There were originally many small shops in this barren mountain for the corpse chasers to rest, but now, there are few left, and the direction we are taking, on this road, there is only one small shop for rest, which is the one that had the accident. ”

After hearing this, Li Changsheng bowed his head slightly and said, "Then what are you referring to?" ”

Jia Ye smiled faintly and said: "There is a dilapidated hut, I remember that in the early years, there were still people living in it, this hut is in the mountains, it is not convenient to enter and exit, and then the owner of the house left, I heard that it was into the city, originally when we drove the corpse, we passed by that place at night, and we would go in to rest." ”

Li Changsheng said: "In other words, an empty house? ”

Jia Ye nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Li Changsheng said: "It's okay...... Anyway, there is a place to rest, and it is estimated that it will not be far from dawn, and it is good to be able to take a rest. ”

Jia Ye showed a mysterious smile and said, "But later, don't be afraid." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked at Linglong.

Linglong was stunned for a moment, then frowned, and said, "Master Jia, what do you mean?" ”

Jia Ye said: "That hut was uninhabited later, and it became a place for corpse chasers to come and go, but ...... Because of some things, the corpses that came and went, some of which had been temporarily abandoned, were also thrown into the hut, and they were felt...... It's now a righteous village. ”

After hearing this, Linglong's face changed.

Of course, she knew that in ancient times, it was a place where people used to place corpses, which is equivalent to the morgue in today's social hospitals.

Although the profession of chasing corpses sounds mysterious, not everyone who is engaged in this industry is so professional. Many people have inherited their father's business and learned this technique, and at the beginning they took some work, and when they walked in the barren mountains, they found that it was not easy, and they gave up halfway, and some corpses were abandoned in the mountains and forests.

Because before driving the corpse, it is necessary to embalm the corpse with a special potion, so the corpse abandoned in the mountains is often eaten by wild beasts, but the corpse left in the hut is unharmed.

This kind of ancient trade, in ancient times, the people who carried it out, still had some beliefs and ethics, but with the change of the times, many people became impetuous, and they couldn't bear loneliness and boredom, and this business was also not taken seriously by more and more people. In the past, there would basically be no corpse chasers who gave up halfway after taking the job, but now, this kind of thing is a common occurrence.
