Chapter 19: Mountain Ghosts

Sun Yang and Lu Xiaoling quieted down in unison.

In such dark nights, there are always many, many sounds to be heard, the wind blows the treetops, the houses begin to shrink after the temperature drops, snakes, insects, rats and ants begin to move after nightfall, and even some birds or bats that are nocturnal at night.

When you look at the world with fear, the feedback from the world is bound to be terrifying, because fear will magnify your senses without limits and respond to you in the way you fear most.

Was it someone walking outside the house, or was it some beast?

Sun Yang looked at Lu Xiaoling, and she held the two charms in her hands.

"Smack!" Another crisp sound of a small branch breaking, followed by the snort and soft chirping of some animal, Sun Yang no longer hesitated, he first covered Xu Hai's mouth with his hand, and then shook him awake.

Xu Hai was woken up from a deep sleep, felt someone covering his mouth, was startled, and struggled, Sun Yang pressed him while letting him see that it was him.

"Something's coming." He told Xu Hai in a low voice.

Xu Hai finally came to his senses, Sun Yang let go of him, and shook Li Yong and the driver awake as he could, but the reaction of the two was much more intense than Xu Hai, especially Li Yong, who suddenly remembered that he was almost swept away by a monster during the day, and his body trembled.

Sun Yang picked up the torch from the ground and handed it to them, and walked to Lu Xiaoling's side, she looked out intently from the open door of the house, there were no street lights, only the swaying light of the firepit, and she couldn't see anything clearly in the dark.

"It's not a ghost." Sun Yang said to her.

He could feel the things just across the wall, but he couldn't see any evil or ghostly energy.

"That's better." Lu Xiaoling said with high morale.

While the two were talking, there was a sudden soft "thump" from upstairs, as if something had fallen on the floor.

Li Yong was so frightened that his teeth trembled and he made a sound, and the torch in his hand also fell to the ground, Xu Hai glared at him fiercely and lit the torch in his hand.

Suddenly, small green dots of light appeared on the fence.

Sun Yang grabbed the wooden stick he had picked out before: "It's here!" ”

The attack was launched from the top of his head, a black shadow monster screamed and pounced down from the door, Lu Xiaoling turned sideways slightly, Sun Yang faced it is a stick, only to hear a scream, the thing was forced out by him, and fell heavily on the firewood and grass team in the yard, making a terrible scream.

This strange cry seemed to be a starting gun, and seven or eight black shadows on both sides of the open door of the hall pounced in, Sun Yang pulled them out one by one, while Lu Xiaoling threw the thunder fire talisman in his hand towards the black shadow closest to him.

"Om wind and thunder, open!"

The two flames exploded violently, and the hair on the monster's body was also ignited, and it screamed instantly.

They also saw the monster through this light.

They looked like large monkeys, but they had no tails, and their mouths were pointed, frightening fangs, and their faces were lined with indigo patterns that converged on the bridge of their bright red noses, making them look hideous and terrifying.

"Mountain ghosts!" Li Yong cried.

Sun Yang and Lu Xiaoling were not afraid of this kind of physical monster at all, Sun Yang used a stick as a gun, and stabbed a mountain ghost in the nose, making it scream and retreat, and backhanded a mountain ghost who jumped down from the side staircase.

Lu Xiaoling also picked up a wooden stick, her end was sharpened by her and roasted with fire, becoming more and more fierce, in less than five minutes, four or five mountain ghosts wailed and were injured in her hands, and they didn't dare to come in again.

There was a sudden commotion outside, and then a two-meter-tall mountain ghost climbed through the courtyard gate when he walked on four legs.

Sun Yang and Lu Xiaoling's faces became solemn, such a monster can't be dealt with with with a wooden stick, if it doesn't work out, it may tear down the house.

Lu Xiaoling held a stick in one hand, took out a stack of rune paper from her bag, and went out directly, and Sun Yang had no choice but to follow.

But the huge monster didn't move, it tilted its head to look at the two of them, and then at the wailing mountain ghosts around it, and suddenly looked up to the sky and roared.

"If you want to fight, hit it, what the hell is it called!" Lu Xiaoling said.

The giant mountain ghost lowered his head.

Sun Yang hurriedly walked between them.

"We have no hostility!" He said loudly. "You can tell that we're not playing hard!"

The giant mountain ghost let out a low cry, and the eager mountain ghosts around him stopped.

"We're here to find someone!" Sun Yang continued. He put a wooden stick in his hand like a toothpick compared to the giant mountain ghost on the ground, and took out Cao Daoping's photo. "We have no hostility, we will leave if we find him!"

The giant mountain ghost sniffed him carefully, and suddenly sneezed loudly, Sun Yang was drenched, and the surrounding mountain ghosts let out a strange cry one after another, as if they were laughing at him gloatingly.

"Have you seen him?" Sun Yang stretched out his hand to ask Lu Xiaoling not to act rashly, and continued to ask loudly.

"Human ......," the mountain ghost said suddenly, causing everyone's eyes to widen in surprise.

"This is not the place for you to be, especially people like you." Its voice was low, like a deep drum, but barely intelligible. "This mountain has been the territory of my mountain ghost clan since ancient times, and we guard the holy land and prevent the sleepers from being awakened by your ignorance."

"We have no intention of destroying the sacred mission of the Mountain Ghost Clan!" Sun Yang hurriedly said.

"I doubt that." The mountain ghost's nostrils twitched. "From you, I feel the death breath from the ancients, it is the terrifying force that once destroyed everything, I must kill you and protect my family."

"If you want to fight, you can fight, what excuse to make!" Lu Xiaoling said.

The mountain ghosts roared, and the rancid air currents came at them, blowing their eyes away.

"This must be a misunderstanding!" Sun Yang hurriedly shouted loudly. "We don't want to be an enemy of the mountain ghosts! We just want to get this guy back! As soon as we find him, we'll leave right away! Do you know where he is? ”

"All humans who offend the mountains and forests will be killed, this is the sacred mission of the mountain ghost clan. The man you are looking for has offended the mountains and forests, and he will be killed to atone for his sins with his blood! ”

Lu Xiaoling's brows furrowed, but Sun Yang heard the news that he was eager to inquire about, Cao Daoping was not dead yet, and the mountain ghost knew his whereabouts!

"We'll take him away!" He exclaimed. "Just tell us where he is! We'll rush over and take him right away! ”

"If you want to be deceived, the mountain ghosts will never be deceived."

A few mountain ghosts secretly touched down from the upper floor while they were talking, and they suddenly pounced on Xu Hai in the room, Li Yong screamed, Sun Yang and Lu Xiaoling had no time to come back!
