Chapter 278: Ghost Town

Because I gave all the money on me to Li Haotian's family, after returning to Xi'an, I not only lived by spending Qin Chuchu's money every day, and became a shameful eater of soft rice, but also owed Wushun and Xiaolanling a large amount of task bonuses.

Of course, after knowing that I gave the money to Li Haotian's family, my brothers all said that they didn't want this task bonus.

Even Xiao Lanling and Wu Shun, who usually love money, pretend to be rich now, and they don't take this money in their eyes at all.

But they don't want this task bonus anymore, but the habit I have developed over the years has always made me feel that I owe them money, and I have always been very unhappy in my heart.

If there is one thing I have gained from this mission, it is that my phase master level has been upgraded by one level, and I have finally been promoted to the fourth rank of the Xuan rank.

And as my Xiangshi level was upgraded to the fourth rank of the Xuan Rank, my left thumb was also opened up by Xiangqi.

Once I can ascend to the ground level, all the ten fingers of my hands will be opened up by Xiangqi, and not only can my finger pinching ability be greatly improved, but I can also use my hands to send out Xiangqi, and do many things that I couldn't have imagined before.

But in order to move up to the level of my physiognomy master, I have to gain merit, and I have to gain a lot of merit.

And the best way to gain merit is to take the task from the Heavenly Dao Gate.

Originally, taking the task from the Heavenly Dao Gate, I could not only earn the task bonus to pay off the debt, but also gain merit and improve my level of physiognomy master, which is the best of both worlds.

But after Yun Ruofeng and Su Tian were arrested one after another, I had a very complicated psychology about the tasks of the Heavenly Daomen.

In order to make money and reap merits, I wish that the Heavenly Dao Gate would have a task for us, but when I thought that there might be changes in the process of doing the task, I didn't want the Heavenly Dao Gate to have a task assigned to us.

After more than a month like this, when the Dragon Boat Festival was approaching, Tiandaomen gave us a task.

And when Qin Chuchu told me that she said that the location of this mission was not in Xi'an, but in a small county in Shanxi, I felt a little strange.

If it was said that before Yun Ruofeng and Su Tian had an accident, no matter what the task was, I would definitely rush to pick it up.

But at this moment, facing the task of the Heavenly Dao Gate, my feelings are very complicated.

So when Qin Chuchu said that the task given to us by Tiandaomen was in a small county town in Shanxi, I asked her the reason at that time.

I said, why do we have to complete the task in a small county town in Shanxi?

What can happen in a small county? Could it be that the Shanxi Tiandaomen Branch can't solve it?

Couldn't the Heavenly Dao Sect headquarters transfer other people?

Qin Chuchu didn't give me any answer, she asked me to gather the people first, and after everyone was ready, she would say the content of the task specifically.

If we feel that this task can be taken, then we will take this task.

If we feel that this task is dangerous, then we will not accept this task and let the Heavenly Dao Sect send another person.

As soon as Qin Chuchu said this, I didn't have anything to say, and after school in the afternoon, I gathered people together.

And after everyone was ready, Qin Chuchu began to talk about the content of the task.

It turned out that the small county town we were going to was occupied by the Japanese devils for a long time, and it is said that many people died under the butcher's knives of the Japanese devils.

According to the older generation, during the years of occupation by the Japanese devils, as soon as it gets dark, at the gate of the south gate of the county, you will see rows of headless ghosts walking outside the county town behind wooden carts.

However, after the defeat of the Japanese devils, this situation was not seen.

But in the past few decades, although you will not see such a terrifying scene at the city gate, there are often some supernatural events in this county.

For example, in the middle of the night, there will be all kinds of strange shouts and cries on the streets of the county.

For example, when someone comes home from a night out, he suddenly goes into shock and talks gibberish, and the tone and tone of his speech are very different from usual.

Just over a month ago, a primary school in the county town was planning to build a new school building, and when the foundation was laid, dozens of dead people's bones were dug up.

Buried with the bones of these dead people are the military uniforms, steel helmets, belts, leather boots and the like worn by the Japanese back then.

It is said that the Japanese devils stationed in this county town were unwilling to admit defeat after the defeat and chose to commit suicide by cutting their stomachs en masse.

It is estimated that these bones should be left behind by the dozens of Japanese soldiers who committed mass suicide that year.

After exhuming the bones left by these Japanese soldiers, the official contacted the Japanese side and sent the bones of these Japanese soldiers back to Japan.

Of course, the school's academic buildings continue to be built and do not stop.

But not long after the bones of the Japanese soldiers were dug up, an accident occurred on the construction site, killing more than a dozen construction workers.

Because of the construction accident, the school's work was stopped.

And one night, an old man who guards the school gets up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, but he hears neat footsteps coming from the direction of the school's playground, as if dozens of people are running out for exercises.

There were still hours before dawn, and how could there be running in the playground?

The old man felt a little strange, and walked to the school playground.

As a result, after walking not far from the playground, the old man saw dozens of soldiers in Japanese military uniforms running around the playground under the leadership of a man who looked like an officer.

Moreover, these Japanese soldiers ran and drilled at a neat pace, and at the same time shouted passwords in Japanese.

The old man was almost frightened crazy at that time, and just ran away.

He didn't even dare to stay in school anymore and ran back home overnight.

When he got home, the old man told his wife and children what he had seen, and after a few days, the old man died inexplicably.

Later, the old man's story was spread by his family, and some people were more bold and ran to the school playground in the middle of the night to see.

As a result, everyone who went to see them was scared half to death, and when they came back, they all said that they had seen dozens of Japanese soldiers running and exercising in the playground.

And everyone who saw this group of Japanese soldiers would die within a few days.

And just when the story of the Japanese soldiers was spreading in the county town, someone at the gate of the south gate of the county town actually saw rows of dead people walking outside the county town after wooden carts one by one.

The story is now becoming more and more mysterious, causing many people in that county to move their families or hide with relatives in other places.

Of course, there are still many people who can only continue to stay in the county because their family circumstances do not allow it.

The school where the accident occurred has been closed, and many other schools have also closed.

As a result, the entire county is already on the verge of becoming a ghost town!

Speaking of this, Qin Chuchu deliberately emphasized: "Because it involves the ghosts that Japanese soldiers have become after their deaths, the Ishihara family in Japan also sent people to that county seat!" It is said that Rokuro Ishihara, one of Ishihara's eight sons, took someone there! ”

And hearing what Qin Chuchu said, Master Xiu stood up suddenly.

"I don't care what you guys think, even if it's just me, I'm going to take this mission!" Master Xiu said excitedly.

Master Xiu has talked to this extent, what else can we say?

As brothers, we have to go with him.

But I don't know why, but I think that Master Xiu will have an accident this time.

So I glanced at Master Xiu's face, but I saw that his life palace was filled with black gas, which was a great omen!

Seeing this situation, I hurriedly said to Master Xiu: "Lao Xiu, give me your birthday, and I will calculate for you whether you are evil or good when you go to Shanxi this time?" If it's a big murderer, I will never let you go! ”

But who knew that Master Xiu shook his head very resolutely.

"I don't care if it's bad or lucky, even if I will die in Shanxi, I must go! I swore in front of my brother's corpse that if I didn't kill Rokuro Ishihara with my own hands, I would never marry Yuxuan for the rest of my life! ”

"Jiang Yi, none of you are allowed to persuade me, whoever dares to persuade me, I will break off my friendship with whomever I want!"
