Chapter 20: The Stone Lives

The guy named Zhang Qian who had met at the inn before was covered in blood as if he had been hit hard, while a middle-aged man in a Taoist robe was pale and his lips trembled, and he was constantly frightened.

Daoist Mo took out the kettle from his bag and poured a little hot water for the other party, and the middle-aged man was grateful to Dade for taking two sips and finally came back to his senses.

I squatted on the ground to check Zhang Qian's condition, there was a very obvious wound on his forehead, but fortunately it was not too deep and did not hurt the bones, I took out the first aid kit and treated it briefly and wrapped him with gauze.

"This guy needs to get to the hospital as soon as possible." Jia Ren gently kicked the unconscious Zhang Qian with his foot, and I slapped his leg away, "If he hangs up and the patrol finds your footprints from him, then you are the first suspect." ”

"Where is it so easy to hang." Jia Ren pursed his lips disdainfully, he stared at the middle-aged man and asked, "You are also a Taoist priest when you are dressed, right?" Why did you get to this place and start thinking about making money and killing people? ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" He wasn't hurt by me, it was the stones! ”

"Nonsense, it's not you, the rock can jump up on its own and knock this guy unconscious?" Jia Ren sneered twice.

I followed the middle-aged man's gaze as I searched through the grass, and after a few seconds I did find a blood-stained stone.

"This is the tool of the crime, right?" I walked over and wanted to pick up the stones, but Mo Daoshi stopped me, "Don't touch them, those stone figurines are alive." ”

I quickly stepped back and held up my flashlight to shine it over, and judging from the shape and outline, it was indeed a stone figure larger than a fist.

"I don't believe in the making of stones." Jia Ren was a little unbelieving and wanted to pick it up and take a look, but when he bowed down, the stone really moved by itself!

He was so frightened that he took a few steps back, and I was also taken aback, Daoist Mo got up, took out a red rope from his pocket, bent down, jumped up, and pounced.

It's the first time I've seen people fighting with stone figures a little silly, but from the muffled snort that comes from Mo Daoshi's mouth from time to time, I know that it's not easy.

After two or three minutes, Daoist Mo who was lying on the ground finally calmed down, and I walked over to see that he was covered in mud and was pressing the stone villain hard, and his hands quickly wrapped the red rope around the villain's neck.

"Incredible." Jia Ren gasped, and the middle-aged man on the side nodded: "I haven't experienced anything like a ghost, but this is the first time I've encountered this situation." ”

The middle-aged man's name is Pang Shigui, a Taoist priest who is a monk halfway, relying on his early years to learn from a Taoist leader for a few days, swaggering and deceiving everywhere, plus he can speak well and is well versed in the thick black way of seeing people and talking about people, and he soon won the trust of Zhang Qian, the gold owner.

The place of Jiuzhi Mountain was proposed by Zhang Qian, and he came here to find a dojo, saying that he could save his life.

Although Pang Shigui didn't understand anything, he promised under the temptation of money that he would definitely help Zhang Qian achieve his goal.

After that, the group came to this Jiuzhi Mountain, and Pang Shigui proposed to touch it at night, mainly because he planned to take advantage of the dark wind at night to fool Zhang Qian back, so that the money could be obtained without continuing to take risks.

But he didn't expect that this time he would hit the evil by mistake, and he couldn't understand how a stone figure came back to life and knocked Zhang Qian on the head and bleed.

"It's also a stumbling technique?" I walked over and asked in a low voice, and Daoist Mo shook his head and said, "No, have you checked the information about this Jiuzhi Mountain?" ”

I frowned and nodded: "I checked some information, saying that this is the place where Emperor Shun slashed demons and returned to heaven, this stone villain has something to do with Emperor Shun?" ”

"No, I mean, this stone villain shouldn't be here, it should be in Ghost Cub Ridge."

I was immediately stunned, the information I checked before showed that it was true that these stone figurines were a specialty of the Ghost Cub Ridge, and Jiuzhi Mountain had indeed not seen any information about the stone figurines except for the Shundi Temple and some other scenic spots.

"I know, there is a local legend that says that the stone villain of Ghost Cub Ridge is a little ghost in the underworld! At night, I ran out to do activities because I was unwilling to be lonely! Eighty percent of this villain is a little ghost who wants to come to Jiuzhi Mountain for sightseeing. ”

Jia Ren said something serious, I wanted to laugh when I heard it, and Pang Shigui on the side shook his head and said: "Although my skills are not as good as this Daoist brother, I still have some eyesight, do you know what place Jiuzhi Mountain is?" ”

"4A-level scenic spot." Jia Ren said, Pang Shigui sighed and said: "Our Taoist family has thirty-six caves and seventy-two blessed lands, and these places are all places where immortals live and rest.

The world thinks that it is the realm of heaven, auspicious and blessed, salty admiration, Taoist hidden meditation people, many like to live in the secluded mountains and forests, so choose more places with fairy legends, build palaces, and hope for the shade of fairy wind and Gong Taoist garden.

This Jiuzhi Mountain is the twenty-third cave heaven in the thirty-six cave heavens, since it is a blessed land of the cave heavens, how can there be little ghosts coming here to infest? ”

I don't know what to say, but listening to his meaning, it is absolutely impossible for this kind of stone villain to appear here, and since it has appeared, there must be something wrong.

"Do you want to say that we're not in Jiuzhi Mountain?" I asked in a deep voice, and Pang Shigui nodded very solemnly, "Maybe you really said it." ”

"What nonsense? Even if you have Hot Wheels on your feet, it is impossible to cross dozens of kilometers in half a day, right? I know the Ghost Cub Ridge you are talking about, and the straight-line distance from Jiuzhi Mountain is about 40 kilometers, and it takes half a day to hike, maybe? ”

Jia Ren didn't believe in this kind of nonsense, although I also felt that it was impossible in my heart, but I was always a little unsure, I set my eyes on Mo Daoshi, who frowned and thought about what he was considering.

"If it's just this one stone statue, it's just an accident, but if it's a pile," said Mo Daoist, he got up and looked around, "then it might really be in the wrong place." ”

"It's simple, just take a closer look at the surrounding area to see if there are any other stone figures." Jia Ren looked at Daoist Mo as he spoke, and he asked, "Our destination is the top of the mountain?" ”

"Just come with me." After Daoist Mo finished speaking, I pointed to Zhang Qian, who was still unconscious, and asked, "What should he do?" ”

"Since this guy is his gold owner, let him carry the gold master down the mountain, maybe he can add money."

As soon as Jia Ren's words came out, Pang Shigui hurriedly waved his hand, "Two heroes, this Daoist brother, I really don't dare to stay in this place alone, not to mention a wounded person on my back, maybe I will be killed before I go down the mountain!" ”
