Chapter 51: The Night Fog of the Barren Mountains

Standing at the bottom of the small dirt slope, I told Xu Xiaolin that this was the place pointed to on the map. Xu Xiaolin stopped and looked around, but at this time it was dark, and the moon had not yet come out, except for the outline of the black mountains in the distance, nothing else could be seen clearly.

I came to this place a few days ago, so I naturally knew that the people she was looking for were not here, so I said to Xu Xiaolin: "It seems that there is no one here, do you want to continue to look deeper?" ”

Xu Xiaolin didn't mean to move forward immediately, she looked at the map repeatedly, checked the direction where we were, and finally said to us: "The place is right, you see that there are traces of a bonfire burning here, it seems that they have indeed been to this place before." ”

Xu Xiaolin shone our feet with her fingers, which were the traces left by the burning of the female corpse we had burned before.

I didn't speak, and then she told us to rest here after a day's journey, and she told her men to look around.

Next, the four men who had been following Xu Xiaolin scattered and began to look around. And Xu Xiaolin also looked around alone.

To be honest, they didn't look like they were looking for someone at all, but rather looking for something. Because when looking for someone to come to a place, you must first call the other person's name, and then look all the way through. But along the way, let alone shouting names, I have never looked for people at all.

Their behavior made me feel more and more wrong, and I trust my judgment that their so-called search is definitely just an excuse. And their real purpose this time must be the same as the people Li Erzhu brought into the mountain, they all came to this place.

I already had doubts about them in my heart, so I naturally kept an extra eye, and saw that Xu Xiaolin also walked aside, and now there were only me and Mr. Yin Yang named Tang Zhaofu left, so I asked him softly: "Mr. Tang, are they really here to find someone?" ”

Tang Zhaofu was stunned for a moment, and asked me: "You don't think they are looking for someone?" ”

Seeing him ask me like this, I also understood, it seems that Xu Xiaolin didn't tell him the truth either.

Tang Zhaofu smiled and said, "Anyway, as long as you don't let me kill people and set fires, it doesn't matter what kind of thing they do in the mountains." Brother Chen, are you right? ”

I nodded, and just as I was talking to Tang Zhaofu, one of the bodyguards walking on the hillside suddenly called Xu Xiaolin, as if he had found something, and Xu Xiaolin immediately walked over.

Seeing this, I frowned, because the place where the bodyguard was located was the same hole where the female corpse was before. So I immediately followed.

As soon as they got closer, what they found was indeed the entrance to the tomb, and at this time, the bodyguard and Xu Xiaolin were preparing to enter.

"Miss Xu, your friend probably won't be inside, right?" I asked deliberately.

Tang Zhaofu on the side didn't recommend her to go in, but his reason was that the hole looked unusual, with a slight resentment lingering, saying that there might be dirty things inside.

This is true, although the female corpse has been burned, but the air in the cave is not circulated, so there is still a resentment that has not yet dissipated. It seems that this Tang Zhaofu is not the kind of liar Lan Dao and the like.

Xu Xiaolin was stunned: "Really?" Would the two gentlemen come in with us to have a look, in case my friend is hiding in this hole?" ”

Since the employer has spoken, Tang Zhaofu and I naturally can't refuse, and told Xu Xiaolin to go to the back, and then I walked in first.

Because I knew that there would be no danger inside, I didn't worry too much and led them directly into the cave. A few torches illuminated the small tomb very brightly, Xu Xiaolin glanced around the tomb, and saw that the tomb was empty, showing a bit of loss. Then he turned to us and asked, "Do you think this is like a tomb?" ”

I nodded, and Tang Zhaofu also nodded and said, "This should be a tomb, and the yin qi is still lingering here, obviously not an ordinary earth cave." ”

"Since you all think it's a tomb, don't you think it's strange why there is no coffin here?" Xu Xiaolin wondered.

Seeing that she seemed to be interested in the matter, my suspicions of him became heavier, and it seemed that she might really be running for this grave.

At this time, I had to pretend to be stupid, and I pretended to be stupid and didn't know anything when she asked.

Tang Zhaofu was also very curious, saying that it was really strange, isn't this a tomb?

Xu Xiaolin and her bodyguards walked back and forth in the small tomb, knocking here and stomping there with their feet, as if they were looking for a secret door.

I went back and forth several times, but in the end I didn't find anything, and I couldn't help but look very unwilling, and kept muttering: "Why not?" How can it be empty? ”

Tang Zhaofu, who didn't know why, said to her: "Miss Xu, this hole is obviously a thief hole, maybe the coffin has already been taken out by others, why bother with this matter?" ”

After Xu Xiaolin listened, she nodded, then sighed, waved her hand, and signaled to leave.

Outside the cave, the other three bodyguards also came back, Xu Xiaolin asked them if they had found out, and the three people all shook their heads and said no. Hearing this, Xu Xiaolin glanced back at the entrance of the cave behind her, and then I vaguely heard her whisper: "Since there is only this one tomb here, why is it empty inside?" ”

At this time, the bodyguard who had just gone into the cave with us said, "Could it be that Ah Long and they have already taken it?" ”

Xu Xiaolin nodded, then turned to us and shouted, "Mr. Tang, Mr. Chen, since my friends and they are not here, I plan to continue walking inside, if I really can't find them, I have to go back." ”

We nodded, and then we continued on our way.

After a period of tossing, it was late at night, and a bright moon had hung high in the sky, covering the entire mountain range with a layer of hazy silver.

A group of six of us, constantly rushing forward under the moonlight, this time they were really looking for someone, walking all the way, shouting her friend's name "Aaron, Ahao......" all the way. However, we went deeper than ten miles and did not hear any response from anyone.

At this time, it was already late at night, and I don't know when the mountain began, and there was a thick night fog everywhere, making it look misty.

After walking a little further, the night fog grew thicker and thicker, so thick that it was almost impossible to see anything a few meters away. Seeing this, I couldn't help but stop. Xu Xiaolin saw me stop suddenly and asked me what's wrong?

"I don't think it's right, it's unusual." As I said this, my brow furrowed. Because the moon is high in the sky, it is reasonable to say that it is impossible to make such a big fog. As the saying goes, if something goes wrong, it is a demon, and you must be careful when you are traveling in the mountains in the middle of the night.

Hearing this, they were all stunned, Xu Xiaolin showed the weak side of a woman for the first time at this time, and said with a little fear: "Mr. Chen, are you saying that this place is not clean?" ”

"I just don't think it should be so foggy in this weather, and I'm not sure if there are ghosts or ghosts. However, I have heard the old people say since I was a child that there is a Hades Palace and a ghost gate in this Niutou Mountain, and some people have seen Yin soldiers passing by in this mountain, although I don't know whether it is true or false, but this barren mountain is adjacent to it, and the fog is strange again, we still have to be careful. After I finished speaking, I glanced at Tang Zhaofu.

At this time, he also squinted his eyes and looked around seriously, and then pinched his lotus fingers and rubbed them violently, as if he was in trouble, and everyone present held their breath and didn't dare to speak, waiting for him to calculate the result.

However, when I saw him pinching his fingers and pinching them indiscriminately, I almost didn't laugh out loud, where is this surnamed Tang pinching, he is obviously pretending to be a ghost, because he is not pinching the heavenly stems at all, but purely pretending to rub his fingers.

However, his mess is a bit like Zhang Tianshi's style when he told me fortunes, and he looks like a master. Not only Xu Xiaolin and the others looked at him expectantly, but even I was stunned, thinking what trick this thing is playing? <
