Chapter 12: The Three Locust Trees

After Li Changsheng's natal soul returned to his body, he opened his eyes and saw Ah Xiu in front of him with a nervous expression.

"Great...... I thought you were asleep! Ah Xiu showed a smile and said very happily.

Li Changsheng stood up and said lightly, "Let's go." ”

Ah Xiu asked, "Where to go?" ”

"Pond."

"Pond?"

Li Changsheng didn't answer Ah Xiu's question, and walked away.

Ah Xiu looked puzzled, but he didn't ask too much, and followed behind Li Changsheng.

In a short time, the two of them came to the edge of a pond in the middle of the mountain.

The expression on Ah Xiu's face was a little strange.

Li Changsheng smiled slightly and said, "You wait for me." ”

"What are you going to do?"

"Catch the frogs."

After Li Changsheng finished speaking, he ignored Ah Xiu, rolled up his trouser legs, and walked towards the pond.

In the darkness, the light was dim, and in front of a large pond, only the sound of frogs "croaking" could be heard.

It's not easy to catch frogs in the middle of the night.

But Li Changsheng seemed to be familiar with it, and in a few strokes, he grabbed three frogs and went ashore.

Ah Xiu looked at it, was dumbfounded, and said in surprise: "How did you catch it?" ”

Li Changsheng smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry about it. ”

After speaking, he threw the three frogs into the cloth bag, and then continued: "Let's go." ”

The night breeze, overcast and cold, blows slowly.

Between the mountains and forests, there was a "whine" sound, like the cry of a child in the middle of the night, which was a little weird.

Ah Xiu followed Li Changsheng's side, and the more he walked into the mountains, the more cold he felt.

The thin clothes on her body seemed to be unable to stop the heavy fog in the deep mountains, and the biting chill seeped into every pore on his skin.

Suddenly, in the darkness, Ah Xiu saw that there were three big locust trees not far in front of him, and his face changed greatly in an instant, and he suddenly grabbed Li Changsheng.

Li Changsheng stopped, frowned, looked at Ah Xiu, who seemed to be suddenly at a loss, and said, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Ah Xiu looked at Li Changsheng in horror and said, "Where are you taking me?" ”

Li Changsheng said: "I said, I will go to the mountains first to solve some troublesome things, and then I can send you back to the village." ”

When Ah Xiu heard this, he grabbed Li Changsheng's hand tightly and said, "Don't go...... Don't go ......"

As he spoke, the look of fear in his eyes became more and more obvious.

Even in the dark, Li Changsheng seemed to feel that Ah Xiu's mood had changed a little, and he was a little puzzled, and asked, "What's wrong with you?" Why did you tell me not to go. ”

"Can't go...... There...... There...... There are zombie ......," Ah Xiu said in horror.

Li Changsheng frowned slightly, and said, "You know? ”

Ah Xiu nodded hurriedly and said: "When I was young, there was a Taoist temple in the village, and there were three Taoist priests in the Taoist temple, and one day they suddenly said that they wanted to come to this mountain to catch zombies, and the result was ......."

"The result?" Li Changsheng asked.

Ah Xiu said: "As a result, they ...... Gone...... I heard from the old people in the village that there is a place in this big mountain where there are zombies, and this zombie is so powerful that anyone who enters this area will never be able to get out again. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ah Xiu "poofed", knelt on the ground, hugged Li Changsheng's thigh, and said, "Don't go, I don't want to go...... You might as well send me back to the village!" ”

Seeing that Ah Xiu's expression was so abnormal, Li Changsheng took a deep breath, slowly squatted down, looked at Ah Xiu, and said, "Are you worried that I won't be able to get out?" ”

Ah Xiu's eyes widened, looked at Li Changsheng, and nodded.

Li Changsheng smiled slightly and said, "It's just zombies, not to mention that in Shimen Village, I killed all the villagers who turned into zombies!" ”

After hearing this, Ah Xiu shook his head again and again and said, "It's different." ”

Li Changsheng was stunned and said, "How is it different?" ”

Ah Xiu said: "Those villagers, although they have become zombies, but they are just crazy, when I was a child, in the Taoist temple in the village, the three Taoist priests are very powerful, the villagers have some problems that cannot be solved, go to them, they will get the answer, in our hearts, these three Taoist priests are simply omnipotent...... But...... But ......"

Speaking of this, Ah Xiu's face was even more frightened, and he looked at the three locust trees not far in front of him.

In the darkness, the three locust trees, like three giants, grew strangely on their branches, and in the darkness, they looked like three skulls smiling hideously.

Li Changsheng said: "But those three Taoist priests, after they went to catch the zombies, they died tragically at the hands of the zombies and never came back?" ”

Ah Xiu nodded and said, "Yes, yes...... There were once villagers who accompanied the three Taoist priests into the mountain, but it was in the place of the three locust trees that the Taoist priest did not let the villagers go in with them again...... So the whole village knows that as long as you see three locust trees in this mountain, it means that you are not far from the place where the zombies are. ”

Li Changsheng smiled slightly and said, "It's really not far away...... You can rest assured...... I'm just going to look for that zombie, and as far as I know, the reason why the villagers of Shimen Village will be infested by mountain spirits tonight is because of this zombie's infestation. ”

When Ah Xiu heard this, he said, "Then you can't go...... This zombie is so powerful that even the mountain spirits in the mountains can drive it...... What if you can't deal with him? You'd better not go......"

Li Changsheng said: "This zombie, I will kill it, don't worry, I said that I would send you back to your village, and I will definitely send you back." ”

Ah Xiu said: "However, the three Taoist priests in the Taoist temple in our village, they have been cultivating for many years, and they can't deal with that zombie, how can you be the opponent of that zombie at your young age?" ”

When Li Changsheng heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "I'm afraid that I have killed more zombies than those three Taoist priests combined." ”

"Really?" Ah Xiu frowned and looked at Li Changsheng in disbelief.

Li Changsheng said: "If you are afraid, just wait for me here, and I can go in alone." ”

"No...... No...... What if you don't come out? How long do I have to wait? In case of...... What about the other mountain spirits in this mountain forest? Ah Xiu said in a panic.

Li Changsheng thought about it and felt that what Ah Xiu said also made some sense.

Now is the day when the ghost door is wide open, and in this deep mountain and dense forest, there are many mountain ghosts and monsters, if Ah Xiu is left here alone, if something happens, it will not be good.

Thinking of this, Li Changsheng said, "Then you go in with me...... Don't worry, I can protect you. ”

"Really?" Ah Xiu still didn't believe it.

After all, the legend of zombies was something she had heard since she was a child, and the three Taoist priests in the Taoist temple in the village were also extremely respectful in her heart when she was young.

She didn't believe that Li Changsheng could deal with the zombies that even the three Taoist priests couldn't deal with.

"Seriously, come on...... You get up first......" Li Changsheng said, helping Ah Xiu's body up.
