"I said that this place is obviously the place with the heaviest yin qi, and those guys should like to gather here, why is it still empty in the morning!"

Shen Qingge rode on Xia Beifeng's neck, picked up the weeds on the wall and looked cautiously into the yard, and said in a low voice: "It turned out to be occupied by hooligans!" Hey, you go a little to the right, I can't see clearly. ”

"It's just a bunch of thugs gambling money, how do you want to see it clearly?"

Xia Beifeng wiped the sweat on his forehead and moved his steps helplessly.

"So what do we do now, stay in another place? Or just hit it in? ”

"Hmmm......"

Shen Qingge fell into deep thought.

Xia Beifeng looked up at her expectantly.

Probably because there are a lot of things in his body that are less than others, Shen Qingge is not heavy, and it can even be said to be very light.

Just by her side, you will feel a burst of heat inexplicably, as if all the moisture in your body is evaporating into the air through the skin.

It felt like I was about to spontaneously combust.

This was the only thought in Xia Beifeng's heart, which she was using as a mount at this time.

"Good! I've decided! Shen Qingge slapped his palm with his fist, and his eyes flashed with excitement: "Let me down, I'll play with them." ”

Xia Beifeng: "......"

He stiffly put the girl riding on his neck to the ground, watched her run into the yard happily, reached out to cover his eyes, and squatted on the ground in pain.

"What the hell am I doing?"

Shen Qingge's excited voice came from the courtyard.

"What are you guys playing, can you take me a?"

"Can't I play without money?"

"Oh, yes, I'll sit then!"

"Don't be afraid, I think you're all good people."

"I didn't bring any money and let me play with you, of course I'm a good person!"

"Oh, how to play this, I don't, can any of you teach me!"

Xia Beifeng silently lit a wax in his heart for the few dead ghosts who gathered to gamble in the courtyard.

He leaned his back against the courtyard wall, lit a cigarette, took out his phone and started playing games.

Half an hour later, there was a roar in the courtyard, followed by the sound of the table being flipped and a series of small pieces falling to the ground.

Xia Beifeng closed the game, stood up again, and reached out and knocked his slightly numb knee a few times.

After a few more minutes, a voice came from the courtyard: "Get out!" ”

Several vague figures quickly escaped from the courtyard gate, and disappeared into the path outside the courtyard in the blink of an eye.

Even the clothes are gone!

Xia Beifeng looked in surprise at the direction in which the figures had disappeared.

That's too ruthless, isn't it?

"Alright, come in." Shen Qingge's voice came from the courtyard again: "Hurry up, it'll be dark in a while, and cooking is not good at that time." ”

Xia Beifeng snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand and walked into the courtyard slowly.

Shen Qingge was kneeling on the ground, picking up the dice and chips that had fallen to the ground, just looking at the expression on her face, it seemed to be quite regretful?

"Won it all so quickly?" Xia Beifeng squatted beside her and helped her pick up things on the ground: "Are you really ...... Love to play! ”

"It's because they're so skilled."

Shen Qingge depressedly put a handful of chips in his hand in Xia Beifeng's palm.

"I still want to ask them for some news, I didn't expect them to lose so quickly, do you have the basic qualities of being a gambler!"

"Seriously." Xia Beifeng stood up and said seriously: "We have often discussed this matter before, and everyone suspects that you were hacked to death by the creditor because you lost too much gambling money." ”

"Cut, how can those thugs in the casino deal with me, you look down on me too much!"

Shen Qingge pushed open the door of the house, turned around and smiled at Xia Beifeng: "I never paid attention to those creditors or anything. ”

You really had a creditor while you were alive!

Xia Beifeng glanced at her in awe and followed into the house.

This will make it already evening, and the sunset in the west will also turn orange, but the temperature is still not low, and hot people are upset.

But in this room, it's still as cool as ever.

"I think a lot in the summer." Xia Beifeng was holding the pot and chatting with Shen Qingge: "If it's too hot in summer, go buy a haunted house, how good, cool and save electricity!" If it's a female ghost, you can still appreciate it. ”

"You never thought that if it was a man and he was ugly, he would still be crushed. I fight my own corpse in the house every day, and finally I fall in love with you, what if I fall in love with you later? Shen Qingge sat on the work, crossed his legs and looked at him sympathetically: "It's better to cook quickly, you have nothing to do and less daydreaming, it's not good for IQ." ”

Xia Beifeng imagined the scene she said, couldn't help but tremble twice, lowered his head and honestly began to boil water.

It's better to install a few more air conditioners, and it's not bad for that electricity bill.

He thought so and closed the lid on the pot.

The sun sank little by little, and the blue sky lit up with a little starlight.

It's nightfall.

"Xiaobei, I think you are quite suitable to marry in the future, really."

Shen Qingge lay on the offering table, playing with a dirty candlestick, and said casually.

"I don't want to say anything."

Xia Beifeng smiled and put away his things, found a hidden place in the house to put his backpack away, and raised his head to look at the lazy Shen Qingge.

"When are we going out."

"Don't worry, just follow them when they all come out." Shen Qingge put down the candlestick in his hand, jumped off the offering table, and walked directly below the skylight, "Didn't you meet it a few days ago?" Those...... Guy, who died later? ”

"Yes, they met, but there were no dead people, they chased after the car for a long time, and then they left again."

"Gone again?" Shen Qingge seemed very surprised when he heard this: "Are you sure you left by yourself, didn't you do anything to scare them away?" ”

"I'm innocent." Xia Beifeng spread his hands: "It's really them who go by themselves." ”

"Impossible." Shen Qingge said categorically: "Those guys don't come out easily, if they really run out, they will definitely die, do you mean they ran after the car you made?" ”

Xia Beifeng nodded, and began to recall the energy he had when he encountered the ghost fire the night before.

"Who are you guys in the car?"

Who was in the car?

Another driver, two little girls, Xu Tianyang and me......

Wait, it seems like there's another person?

"Ah......" Xia Beifeng showed a painful expression, covered his face and shouted loudly: "There is another person, I forgot!" ”

"Is that person still alive?" I knew Shen Qingge's face, and I said as if complaining: "You can forget this kind of thing, go to the hospital to check your brain after you go back." ”

"Now...... It should be alive. Xia Beifeng said uncertainly: "I got off with Xu Tianyang halfway, I didn't notice him, I hope he is still alive." ”

Even if it's a little annoying, it's a human life, and now in this situation, I can only pray that he is still alive somewhere in the world.

"Nine times out of ten, it's dead, and those guys can't be disappointed if they go out."

Shen Qingge didn't care much about Xia Beifeng's thoughts, she just speculated on this matter based on her own experience.

"They are different from the harmless dead ghosts in this village, they are resentful spirits who have died in this village for thousands of years and are unwilling to leave, because they were affected by the aura in the mountains, and finally formed such a group of monsters gathered together."

She raised her head, looked at the stars above the skylight, and said leisurely, "Have you ever heard of marching ants?" Organized and disciplined disaster, many ants gather together, and no grass grows in the place they pass. ”

"Of course I know about marching ants." Xia Beifeng looked at her in shock and took a step back: "What makes me feel terrible is that you actually know about the marching ant, is this world still the world I originally knew?" ”

Shen Qingge's eyes widened, and he picked up the spear in his hand and thought about swinging it on his lap.

Xia Beifeng quickly took two steps back, dodging the tip of the spear that swung at him, and clutched his chest and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"It's so dangerous, it's almost abolished by you, you are so ruthless, do you want to make our family go to the end!"

"It's okay, don't you still have a little heaven if you're wasted."

"Xiaotian, don't count on it, there is a chance that he is ready to marry a figure, or he is polygamous."

"Then your uncle, although he is not very reliable, he is always a little better than you."

It turns out that I can't even compare to Shen Yungui in your heart!

Xia Beifeng looked at her in surprise, opened his mouth, and finally didn't dare to say his protest.

"Forget it, let's be serious." He adjusted his expression and made a pensive look: "You mean, those guys are like marching ants, organized to attack passers-by?" ”

"No, I'm just making an analogy." Shen Qingge fiddled with her hair irritably, and it took a long time before she continued: "It's been so long that they don't remember who they are. There's something in this mountain...... Well...... As a result, they can't become evil spirits in the traditional sense that you can understand, but they still have nostalgia for this world, and they don't want to leave, and they will be consumed by nature over time. You know all these things, right? ”

Xia Beifeng nodded, stretched out his hand and motioned for her to continue.

"I don't know exactly what the process is, and no one knows when it started. In short, when they were discovered, they had become what they are now, and the remnants of consciousness that lacked the ability to think fully merged into a simple, instinctive act collective. Most of the time they float honestly in the mountains, scattering during the day to avoid the sun, and gathering together at night to float around, without hurting anyone. It's just that occasionally they will take revenge because unsuspecting humans or some other unlucky person take the initiative to harass, or because there are not many people who die for a period of time and are not willing to leave, resulting in too much difference in their increase rate and consumption rate, and in order to keep it from disappearing, they take the initiative to attack people passing by, or something else. ”

"It's like being hungry." Xia Beifeng quickly comprehended what Shen Qingge wanted to say: "There have been no living people in this village for twenty years, and the people who died twenty years ago don't know that they are dead for some reason. Even if they stayed here, they didn't join their group, so they had to go out and attack passers-by. ”

"That's right." Shen Qingge nodded quickly and pointed to the skylight above his head, lowered his voice and said, "Look, they are gathering now. ”

Xia Beifeng raised his head, and sure enough, he saw a wisp of "ghost fire" floating slowly above the skylight.

"Now we're going to go out and follow them to see what the hell is going on." Shen Qingge said softly and pushed open the door. He glanced back at Xia Beifeng: "You just said that they haven't eaten for twenty years, so it stands to reason that they should be extremely hungry, but although the frequency of accidents on the road that day is relatively high, it is far from the extent that they are extremely hungry, so ......"

She blinked her eyes and handed Xia Beifeng a "you know" look.

So there must be some reason, either something that can supply them regularly, or simply some person or some monster that controls them, causing them to go out and attack passers-by with a certain frequency.

The weeds in the yard fluttered gently in the night breeze, making a "rustling" sound.

I don't know how many "ghost fires" slowly rose into the air from the gaps in the blades of grass, illuminating the entire courtyard brightly.

Like countless fireflies, among the blades of grass and branches, they constantly flickered in the air, slowly rising into the air and drifting away.

If you don't consider what the light source is, this scene is actually quite beautiful.

Xia Beifeng even felt the urge to take out his phone to take a few photos.

But when he thought that every firefly here was a dead person, he suddenly lost interest.

The two of them walked out of the courtyard and slowly followed the large ghost fire in one direction.

After walking a distance, Xia Beifeng suddenly stopped and glanced back at the courtyard behind them.

"What do you see, don't worry, this house won't disappear suddenly." Shen Qingge also turned back with him, and said softly: "But it's not certain whether we will come back or not." ”

"I'm coming back, I'm still there." Xia Beifeng touched his chin, looked at the barren and grassy yard, and said thoughtfully: "I'm just a little strange, but there are a lot of things floating out of that yard." ”

And even the weeds grow more lush than the outside, obviously a plain house, but it looks gloomy from a distance.

Is it really a feng shui problem?

"Because that's a better place for them to rest!" Shen Qingge said indifferently: "Don't pay too much attention to these details, it's not very important anyway." ”

Even though they had gone so far, there were still a stream of ghost fires of all sizes floating out in that courtyard.

What a good place to sleep in this place!

Xia Beifeng looked at it for a while, I don't know how many times he resisted the urge to take out his mobile phone to take pictures, patted Shen Qingge's shoulder, and whispered, "Let's go." ”

The pile of ghost fires flew slowly, lazily and lazily on the road, and after meeting their companions on a fork in the road, they quickly gathered into a pile and continued to fly in a fixed direction.

By the time they finally got to the place where the ghost fires had finally come together, it had been an hour and a half.

And this place, when they passed by in the afternoon, it was only half an hour's walk.

Before turning the last fork in the road, Shen Qingge suddenly pulled Xia Beifeng hard and jumped into the ridge on the side of the road.

Xia Beifeng was defenseless against her sudden movements, and almost threw herself on the ground. The first thing she did after stabilizing her figure was to look up and protest with her eyes.

"You ......"

Before Shen Qingge could say anything, he quickly reached out to cover his mouth, and pressed the back of his head with the other hand, pressing him to the ground fiercely.

"Don't make a sound, there's someone else up front besides them."

She gestured a few times to express this message to Xia Beifeng.

Xia Beifeng poked his head out curiously and looked out.

He could only see a ray of light that seemed like daylight, and he was dazzled.

Shen Qingge tugged at his sleeve again and continued to make a few gestures.

"It's not a human, it's a ghost."
