Chapter 1: Heading to Devil's Ridge

Next Chapter

In Kyoto of Fengxiang Kingdom, a simple carriage galloped out of the north city gate and went straight to the Demon Ridge (the Demon Ridge is a place to bury the dead or throw the corpse, which is eerie and terrifying, and no one dares to go after a long time). Today is the full moon night of August 15.

A girl of about fifteen years of age, with a green grass in her mouth, lay on the bed in the carriage, with her hands on the back of her head as a pillow.

The carriage looks very ordinary from the outside, but inside it is extremely luxurious, spacious and comfortable. In each corner of the car hung a fist-sized night pearl, and in the middle was placed a red sandalwood square table, on which were placed several delicate snacks.

Under the corner of the table, there was a small red beast with black markings, with a vertical stripe on its forehead, and its tail swept a few times, cute and cute, and raised its head from time to time to look at the girl on the bed.

The girl's eyes were fixed on the roof of the car, and her mouth was chattering, and when she listened carefully, she realized that she was talking to the white horse pulling the cart outside!

The girl said casually: "Dabai, have you not eaten, slower than the speed of the turtle, tsk!" ”

The white horse pulling the cart outside is the transformation of the wolf king.

Dabai: "Master, I'm just going to have wings and fly!" "It's slow.

"Then you'll grow it!"

Da Bai said helplessly: "Master, I am a dignified wolf king, and the wolf clan does not have wings." "I secretly thought to myself, the one inside has wings, but he won't pull you.

"The wolf king isn't pulling a cart for me yet." you off.

"Master, don't bring such a shocking ...... Of course it's not a man, it's a beast. "I was still being hit while working, and the baby was not happy. Boom.......

"Isn't it?" You dare to talk back.

"Master, can we still have a good time!! The baby is bitter, but the baby doesn't say it.

At this time, the little beast lying on his stomach in the car raised his head, coldly glanced at Dabai, who was pulling the car outside through the curtain, and let out a low roar in his throat, as if he was very dissatisfied with Dabai chatting with the girl.

Da Bai felt a murderous aura, instinctive reaction, frightened all over, the car also shook a little, the girl laughed happily, sat up, reached out and hugged the little beast, and stroked two handfuls of the little beast's short hair: "Little skin, scare Da Bai again!" He doted on Pi's forehead. Xiaopi rubbed in the girl's arms very happily and closed her eyes.

The night is getting darker, the road ahead is getting narrower and narrower, and the graves around are large and small.

Bai Sensen's bones can be seen everywhere, the carriage has gone for another distance, the breeze does not know when it becomes cold, the trees are swaying back and forth, and from time to time leaves are scraped off, and the yin is getting heavier and heavier.

At this time, Da Bai spoke: "Master, the Demon Ridge has arrived, and Brother Han is waiting for us in front!" ”

Brother Han, in his thirties, has a Chinese face, his hair is all pulled up, and he is fixed with a wooden hairpin. Burly and dressed in a blue cloth robe, he looked like a simple farmer, with a sack containing tools beside him.

Brother Han is a villager from Zhongyi Village and lives 20 kilometers outside the capital. The old mother, who depended on each other, was seriously ill, and the village doctor prescribed medicine, but the lack of medicine in the village was pitiful, so Brother Han had to entrust his mother to the care of his neighbors, and took the only money in the family to get up early and walk into Kyoto.

Brother Han walked to many pharmacies with prescriptions, but he was turned away because he didn't have enough money.

Brother Han had a depressed face, leaning against a wall, his heart was sullen, panicked, and at a loss, looking at the crowd coming and going on the street.

Slowly, Brother Han found that the capital was full of officers and soldiers patrolling, and the pedestrians were in a hurry, and some people looked panicked, as if they were hiding from something。。。。。。

Brother Han was puzzled. At this time, a group of officers and soldiers came from afar, one of them struck a gong in his hand, and the sound was heard far away, and he quickly walked to the place where the notice was pasted.

One of the people in front of him took out a notice and pasted it on the billboard, and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is a notice issued by the general of the auxiliary country, for the peace of the capital, if there are those who meet the conditions and volunteer to help, please come forward to sign up, and there will be a reward." ”

Brother Han heard the words of the officers and soldiers from a distance, he walked over quickly, and followed a few good people to look at the notice (Brother Han's mother was a beautiful girl when she was young, and she had studied writing since she was a child. οΌ‰

The notice is roughly to requisition a man who is very courageous, not afraid of ghosts and gods, and dares to go to the Demon Ridge alone to get something, but the thing does not clearly say what it is.

Life and death are fate. The bounty is one hundred taels of silver (one hundred taels of silver is the living expenses of several people for several years). Brother Han himself has been very bold since he was a child, and he doesn't believe that there are ghosts and gods in the world.

Brother Han's eyes lit up: This is really dozing off and sending pillows, indescribably excited, my mother's medicine fee has been settled, and I can get so much bounty.

And where did the ghost come from in the world, he did not hesitate to step forward and unveil the notice, for fear that others would rob him.

In fact, there are many people who meet the conditions, but the task is to go to the Demon Ridge and rest, Brother Han unveiled the notice, and the onlookers looked at Brother Han like fools.

A: "There are no living people in Demon Ridge to enter and come out, is he dying?" He touched the person next to him with his elbow.

B: "Look at this dress, it's a lack of money. "Poor.

C: "What's the use of money when it's gone?" "This stupid shortage.

The onlookers pointed and pointed......

There was a person standing in the secret place, the corners of her lips were upturned, she knew that she was in a good mood at a glance, she kept looking at Brother Han, nodded with satisfaction, waved her hand to the position behind her, and someone in the distance turned around and left.

A man walked up to the leader of the officers and soldiers, whispered a few words to him, the leader of the officers and soldiers nodded again and again, and after the man left, he found an officer and soldier to give a few orders.

Brother Han was taken to the gatehouse of the General's Mansion by this officer and soldier, and a little brother in charge received Brother Han and briefly introduced what he did.

asked Brother Han to wait for a person in Devil's Ridge on the night of August 15, gave Brother Han the prepared tools, and asked Brother Han to sign the certificate of life and death.

The little brother in charge first paid half of Brother Han's bounty of fifty taels of silver, and then paid the other half afterwards, Brother Han was very grateful!

…………

Brother Han saw the carriage stop, and hurriedly walked to the carriage, the curtain of the carriage was raised, and a tall girl jumped down.

The girl looks ordinary, it can be said that she can't find the characteristics in the crowd, but she has an aura all over her body, so strong that people dare not approach, they can only bow their heads at her feet, and feel as small as ants in front of her.

Brother Han was stunned, he didn't expect that the person who came was a little girl, this kind of place even the old men hide during the day, not to mention that it is night.
