258. Ghost Town
The little spear standing in front of me still has the same face, but the unruly temperament on his body has disappeared without a trace.
I put down my bow and arrows and wiped away my tears.
"You ......" I opened my mouth, and I had a thousand words to ask him, but I couldn't say anything.
"I'm doing well, this body is very convenient except for not being able to see the sun, and now I'm under your sister's command, and she takes good care of me." The little sharpshooter said in a hoarse voice.
"Satsuki and I have already found a way to save you, but we are still one step away...... Rest assured, I will bring you back under the sun. I clenched my fists.
"That's good." The little sharpshooter nodded.
"What about you...... Do you want to come with me to meet Satsuki now? I asked cautiously.
"No, I don't want her to see me now." The little sharpshooter shook his head.
I was silent, just my legs, creaking the snow under my feet.
"I'm going back first, or my fellow corpses will be suspicious, and we'll meet again soon, in that ghost country." Said the little sharpshooter.
I nodded stiffly.
"I only have one word for your advice after entering the ghost country, be careful of that crow, his eyes are everywhere in the ghost country." Said the little sharpshooter.
Then, the little sharpshooter stepped on the snow and left the woods under the moonlight.
Until the back of the little sharpshooter disappeared again, I still stood still.
I still wanted to cry, but I held back my tears, and I was afraid that Xiao Xiyue and Jiang Lao would be worried, so I asked Xiao Hei to carry me back the same way.
After returning to Xiao Xiyue's side, I didn't say a word about the incident I met just now, only that I had solved the few escaped corpses, and there were crises everywhere in this Twin Peaks Forest Farm, so let's be careful next.
Several ponies had been wounded and died in the scuffle, and the sleds had broken down, so we had to keep going on foot, leaving the living ponies to carry our belongings.
After about two hours, we came to a towering forest, the thickest tree in this forest, which could not be hugged by about six people, and was an ancient forest that had been around for many years.
I stopped in front of a stone statue in this ancient forest, stretched out my hand to remove the snow from the stone statue, and saw that the stone statue had a tiger's head and a beast's face, a human body, a helmet on its head, and a stone axe decorated with a human head in both hands, and its face was extremely hideous.
"This is it, the entrance to the ghost town, the ghost gate." Jiang Lao said, and at the same time, his voice trembled slightly.
According to what Jiang Lao heard, the legend that has been circulated in the dense forest near Changbai Mountain for many years is that the place guarded by the mountain ghost with a tiger's head is the secret entrance of the ghost town in the yang world, and there are hunters who are lost in the mountains, once they strayed into the "ghost gate", they will unconsciously walk into the ghost town, and they will never return to the yang world!
"We just went with the mentality of dying." I say.
Then, I looked up at the stars in the night sky, and it was about a quarter of a moment away.
I removed a rather large and light burlap bag from the pony's back and carried it on my back.
"Don't go any further, we only pick a few of these exorcism objects, and leave the rest to you, and then you go to the forest hut over there to hide for the night, and go back to Changbai Mountain directly the next day." I said to Jiang Lao.
Jiang Lao answered, and then told us to be careful in everything, and led the horses away with the group of hunters.
Xiao Xiyue and I stood in the ancient forest and continued to wait, and a quarter of an hour passed quickly.
At this moment, from the deepest part of the ancient forest, there was a heavy sound of countless iron chains colliding, and a thick mist began to spread in the ancient forest.
Xiao Xiyue and I glanced at each other, and then walked towards the depths of the ancient forest, the source of the mist.
Didn't go far, we saw an old-style pavilion, the four corners of the cornice, the dark mountain gate is as wide as the sky, the ancient meaning is vast, the blood-rust-like horizontal plaque, engraved with the terrifying "ghost gate" three big characters.
We slowly stepped into the mountain gate, and behind us was a sandwich road within the mountain wall, the color of the mountain stone was dark, and we could feel a very cold air coming from it far away.
The mezzanine is narrow at first, and the further you go inside, the wider it becomes.
At the end of the day, our vision suddenly opened up, there were hills, farmland, lakes, houses, the moon still hanging in the sky, but it was extremely bright, the moonlight was soft like a waterfall, and everything was reflected very peacefully.
This is a big surprise to me, according to what Jiang Lao said before, I thought this ghost town would be such a terrifying place, but now it seems that it is completely the appearance of an ordinary village, if it weren't for the heavy yin here, it can almost be called a paradise.
Xiao Xiyue and I crossed the path between the farmland and arrived at a few farmhouses by the lake, but they were empty.
Xiao Xiyue and I were looking left and right, when suddenly a child jumped over from the ridge in the south.
The child was dressed in a cotton jacket, with a pair of tiger-headed shoes on his feet and two tugging on his head.
"There's a little ghost? Grab and cross-examine! "I said to Xiao Xiyue.
Immediately, I pulled open the ink line of the ghost golden sheep ink bucket, and Xiao Xiyue pulled out the copper coin sword at her waist and hid by a wall in the farmhouse.
When the little ghost walked in front of us, Xiao Xiyue and I immediately jumped out and hijacked the little ghost left and right.
But the little devil looked at the guy in our hands, but he was not afraid, his eyes widened, and he asked us what we were going to do.
"Isn't that obvious enough? Boy, you've been kidnapped! From now on, whatever I ask you, you answer. I said viciously.
But the little devil didn't seem to hear me, and said to himself, "Huh! You two are alive! This is not the place where the living should come, so while the ghost gate is still open, hurry up and go back the way you came! ”
"Don't worry about it, let me ask you, besides us, have any other living people been here in the last two months?" I asked.
The little devil nodded.
"Then let me ask you, have you ever seen a long-haired beauty who is quite tall and has a good figure, and she has a scar between her eyebrows." I say.
The little devil touched his chin, thought for a moment, and then said he had seen it.
"Do you know where she went?" I asked.
The little devil stretched out his finger and pointed to the north.
"On the first day that the woman first came, the wild ghost village was lively, and the group of lonely souls and wild ghosts rushed up excitedly when they saw the living people, but the woman was quite powerful, and within a few rounds she beat all the guys down, I was very impressed, and then she said that she was going to see the Yin King, so she went to the ghost world castle." The little ghost said.
"Ghost Castle? From here all the way north, right? Thank you, I was so offended just now, I'm sorry. "I said to the little devil.
"It's okay, if you've given enough, I'll not be angry." The little ghost blinked.
Xiao Xiyue's cheeks and I twitched a few times, this little ghost is so naked, but we have nothing to give him.
What do you want to "mean"? Inquire about something, show me the way...... It's not too much trouble, children don't be so greedy, greed is not a good child. I said.
"At least give me a candy." The little ghost said.
"Uncle and aunt don't have sugar on them, so be it, I'll give you a ......" I possessed and removed the burlap bag from my back.
"No, I'm going to eat sugar! You've got it! Lie to me! "That little devil stretched out his little hand and grabbed it at my eye socket!
Fortunately, I reacted quickly enough to shrink my neck so that this little devil didn't pick out my eyeballs!
"Give me food! Or I'll cry to you! The little devil roared.
I broke out in a cold sweat on my forehead, Jiang Lao repeatedly told us about the danger of this ghost town before, and I can still be careful! Just this little ghost, the moment he made his move just now, the yin qi fluctuations on his body were completely terrifying to the extreme.
"the cubs! I won't give you candy! Give you a soda to drink! I said.
Then, I took a big mouthful of saliva and spit on the little ghost's body.
Ghosts are all afraid of filth, and this saliva immediately kicked up white smoke on the little ghost's body!
The little devil screamed, and then burst into tears, crying and calling for his mother.
"Cry your mother! ! "I pulled out the ink fountain of the ghost golden sheep ink line and ejected the little ghost far away.
The little devil fell to the ground and rolled, crying like a pig, shouting to kill me and Xiao Xiyue.
"Leave him alone, let's go." I said to Xiao Xiyue.
But before we could take a step, there was another movement from the bottom of the ridge.
There was also a heavy woman's voice reaching our ears.
"Who bullied my son?"
Xiao Xiyue and I glanced at each other, thinking that this is a bad thing, the old lady of the other family really came over!
And the moment the little devil's mother appeared on the ridge, the cold hairs on my and Xiao Xiyue's bodies stood up.
The appearance of this female ghost is too penetrating!
She should be more than three meters tall, her upper body is completely naked, the flesh on her body is not only fluffy and drooping, but also rotten like dead tree bark, and the lower body has eight legs side by side, which looks like a centipede.
"This little devil still looks like a person, why is his wife such an ugly monster?" I was amazed.
However, something scared me even more.
The little ghost's mother walked up to the little ghost and told him not to cry, but after a few scolds, the little ghost was still screaming.
The little ghost's mother twisted her eyebrows, picked up the little ghost with her hand, and then opened her bloody mouth and directly bit off the little ghost's head!
Xiao Xiyue and I both took a step back, scared and about to pee our pants.
The headless little ghost kicked weakly on his legs a few times, and then the headless corpse never moved again.
"You...... You ate your son! I shook my hands and pointed to the little ghost's mother.
"It's okay, if you eat it, you can regenerate it tomorrow." The little ghost's mother said nonchalantly.
I immediately understood the identity of this ghost woman, that is, the ghost mother recorded in the "Sutra of Differences", also known as the ghost girl, gave birth to ten little ghosts in the morning, and ate all the sons as snacks at night!
"You two, it looks good, too." The ghost mother stuck out her tongue and pounced on me and Xiao Xiyue.
But before the ghost mother could get close to me and Xiao Xiyue, a figure stood in front of her.
