The fox fairy's hometown is right in front of you, but there is really no way ahead.

Strictly speaking, there is no longer a so-called shortcut ahead, that is, the next part of the road is all surrounded by ghosts, and I really have nothing to say about this, because the only remaining luck in my heart has also disappeared in Dao'an's inference.

Dao An said to me with a solemn expression: "Look, do you see those tombstones? ”

Qian Zha paper and I looked in the direction of his fingers, and sure enough, a few dilapidated stones appeared here and there in the grass not far away, if it wasn't for Dao'an's reminder, I really couldn't see that it was a tombstone, and I thought in my heart, what can these tombstones represent?

Dao An pointed to the 'tombstone' closest to us and said, "The middle of the tombstone turned black and white, and the corpse squeezed the coffin indiscriminately. If I'm not mistaken, in the next part of the road, the burials are the worst of the worst, even if there are walking corpses, it is not impossible, and the next few are very tricky murderous graves............ Xiaoyuan, to be honest, this place is even more fierce than the corpse breeding ground. ”

The walking corpse, is what we commonly call a kind of zombie, the popularity of this thing can be sublimated to the point of national quintessence, according to legend, if people can not blind after death, the throat will be stuck in the owner of a group of grievances, and if the time of burial is not right or the feng shui is not good, then it is very easy to appear corpses do not rot zombies.

In our impression, zombies seem to be the kind of monsters that walk straight and straight in official uniforms, but in fact, there are many kinds of zombies, including the 'three smuggling corpses', or the 'shadow corpses' of the offspring, and the 'walking corpses' that are indulged by external laws and evils.

And the place of raising corpses, I really don't want to mention it anymore, because he is too famous, and almost all of the books and records left by feng shui masters since ancient times have mentioned this feng shui pattern, such as "Tibetan Scriptures", "Tibetan Books", "Qingwu Preface", "Wangfen Break" and "Three Dragon Sutras", these books have mentioned the so-called ' 'Raising corpses', and although these feng shui masters have different expressions, the definition of this feng shui pattern is the same, and they all compare the corpse raising place to the biggest and most serious taboo in the feng shui pattern.

The source of this taboo is precisely because the corpses buried here by mistake will not rot for many years, and even the soft tissues of the body will multiply year by year, and in the end they will evolve into all kinds of vicious evils, and Dao An said that the next road to go is probably more fierce than the corpse raising place, what does this mean?

This means that it is possible that after we step through it, there may be many unheard of murderous creatures, and the ghosts we have encountered before are nothing compared to these murderous creatures.

In other words, if a few of us walked in, it was like being caught in a seemingly boundless group of ghosts, and these evil spirits were all ferocious and abnormal, and we could easily go and never return.

Oh my God, how is this good?

"Is there no other way?" I asked Dao An in a low voice, Dao An shook his head, and then smiled bitterly at me: "I am really 100% sure that this is the hometown of those fox fairies, you must know that this place should not appear in the world, it has not even been recorded in books, you see, the grave is crowded with graves, it is like hell!" ”

"Grandma's." After listening to Dao'an's words, Qian Zhashi subconsciously covered his head with both hands, and then said in frustration: "Grandma's daughter, what is this going on?" Hey Yaozi, or let's go to the river and wait for those fox girls to come and take a bath. ”

I understand the words of Qian Tie paper anyway, you must know that the southern scholar at the end of the Qing Dynasty was bitten by a snake because he wanted to peek at the fox bathing and finally lived in the hometown of the fox fairy for a night? It's hard to get to this place, and it's no wonder that the nomads who used to live here are far away.

It's also difficult to tie paper for money, and now there is still a ridiculous mentality, you know, how can we have such good luck to wait until the fox comes down the mountain to bathe? Take 10,000 steps back, even if we are lucky enough to wait, but can those foxes really be stupid and take us to their hometown?

Don't be kidding, just me, the old face of the last shaman, I'm afraid it has already spread among the five clans, plus the three of us dressed up in this shape and this equipment, at first glance it is a typical criminal, those foxes don't do anything to us It's very good, how can they be stupid enough to lure wolves into the house?

Dao An and I both know the surname of Qian Zha paper, so we didn't talk, it was going to be dark, we can't retreat now, so we have to rest on the spot, after the mood has returned to the trough, our morale is also a little low, and now the sky is about to get dark, and we have encountered this kind of thing in front of us, so we can't move for the time being, we can only rest here for a night and wait until tomorrow to make plans.

But although we didn't speak, we all vaguely understood in our hearts that the next road was to choose between hard breaking and retreating, and if we broke through, it would be more than lucky, but if I really stopped here, then what was the point of everything I had done before?

The afterglow, the sky in the west is fiery red, it is a fire cloud, which means that tomorrow may be a sunny day, but this kind of thing does not matter to me at all, when eating, the three of us did not speak, today we are really too tired, even Qian Zha paper, who has always liked to joke, now seems to have no strength, after drinking the last sip of water, Qian Zha paper wiped his mouth, and then took out a dozen yellow table paper from his backpack and began to make paper weapons, in order to meet the vicious battle that may come tomorrow, Qian Zha Paper's hands kept busy, while Dao An sat cross-legged on the ground and kept looking at the compass in his hand and the terrain in front of him, as if he was still very unwilling and wanted to find another way to live in this dead land.

And I, as if I really had nothing to do, could only sit in this deserted cemetery, staring at the sunset in a daze, without saying a word, and in fact I didn't know what to say.

What does that feel like? It's like when you try your best to go through a labyrinth, and you encounter all kinds of traps and tribulations along the way, and you finally see the end, only to find that there is a high wall before the end, which is unattainable, and the top of the wall is full of thorns.

If you try to climb over this wall, your hands will be blurred with flesh and thorns, and you are more likely to fall on the hard, cold ground and shatter your bones along the way.

At this time, how will you choose? I think I already have the answer, an answer that is not the answer.

So, I sighed, sat in the grass, reached out and took the backpack, intending to find some wounded things that I could use from inside, and after I turned over a few times, I found an ocarina lying quietly in the inner lining of the backpack, this flute has been with me when I was in college, I remember that Su Yidan accompanied me to buy, and now Su Yidan is still sleeping in a hospital in Shenyang, and I am far away in the mountains of the Great Xing'an Mountains.

So, I took out the flute, turned my head to look at Dao'an, who was looking at the compass, with his back to him, and Qian Chao, who was engrossed in making paper, the light of the burning clouds blocked a layer of deep pink and pale red light on their bodies, and their faces were tired and uneasy, and all this was caused by me, although both of them had their own reasons, but I couldn't feel at ease, should I do something for them? And now what can I do for them?

Thinking of this, I turned my head and put the ocarina to my mouth, gently pressed the fingers of both hands on the hole, and slowly inhaled in the afterglow of the fall, transforming the sigh into a soft flute sound.

The last time before dark, the melodious flute wafted over this barren cemetery, the breeze blows, it seems that even the air has become quiet, this song "The Original Scenery of Hometown" tune is soothing and gentle, just suitable for people who are irritable, the faint sorrow in the song is scattered with a glimmer, slowly turning into a little peaceful mood and yearning for beauty, close your eyes, it seems to be able to remember the wonderful time when you were a child, by the river, under the big tree, knowing the tireless chirping, while nibbling on the sweet and juicy watermelon, While watching the fish in the creek swim quietly, what a wonderful thing it was.

Dao An and Qian Zha Paper were also stunned for a moment when they heard the sound of my flute, but they didn't speak, just looked at me, and then fell into deep thought, music is indeed the best medicine that can heal wounds, gradually, our hearts are no longer anxious and uneasy, and a short smile returns to their faces.

After a song, Qian Zhashi got up and patted me on the shoulder, I turned around and saw his heartless smile, only to see him say to me: "Hey, Yaozi, the road is quite wild, I am a little homesick when you blow the song "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". ”

I smiled a little helplessly, and then thought to myself, forget it, there's nothing wrong with you saying that, because this song has indeed been used in many TV shows, and he didn't tell me that this is the weather forecast, which already gave me face, thinking of this, I nodded at him, and the atmosphere at that time was really much calmer, I saw Qian Zhashi turn his head to Dao'an, who was still reading the compass, and said: "Hey, Brother Dao, don't look at it, it's easy to be hypnotized by the 'spider web' on it, are you homesick?" ”

Dao An raised his tired face, then smiled at Qian Zha paper and said, "Kindly, I miss my old man a little." ”

Speaking of this, I saw Dao An sigh softly, and Qian Zha Paper didn't say anything after hearing what he said, just sat side by side beside me, and for a long time, I saw Qian Zha Paper whispering to me: "Yao Zi, you said we can still go home." ”

Home, what a sentimental word, think about how long it's been since I've been home? Thinking of this, my heart was also a little desolate, but after the desolation, a kind of courage gradually woke up, so I looked at the sunset, and then solemnly said: "Of course, we will soon go home." ”

"Yes." I saw Qian Zhashi smile at me, then stretched his waist and said, "Isn't it just a group of evil ghosts?" It's not like we haven't seen a ghost, have we? No matter how evil can be? I'll tie some more guys later, and I'll clean them up tomorrow. ”

After finishing speaking, Qian Zhashi immediately jumped up, as if he had regained his vitality, this is also his surname, his memory is emotional, and he is easily depressed, but his self-recovery ability is super strong, which is also what I envy him.

When the sun set, I lit a bonfire, fortunately there was no shortage of fire-starters in this meadow, and there were ready-made bark branches on the book next to it, the inside of the bark itself was resin, and it crackled when it burned, and after dark, we began to assign the order of night duty, I was the first shift, and the second shift was the money and paper, and considering Dao'an's leg injury, he was ranked last.

After tying a long-handled hammer with the last bit of material, Qian Za Paper yawned and said to me: "Wait a while, if you can't stand it anymore, I'll sleep first, set the alarm clock and wait for you." ”

I nodded, after Qian Zha paper finished speaking, he threw the blanket and poured it up, and after a while, he was already snoring like thunder, after all, he was really tired, and Dao An was the same, he curled up his legs sideways, and slept very sweetly, such a big person, he used a baby sleeping position.

Some people say that people in the baby sleeping position are because of the subconscious lack of security or fear, I agree with this, I looked at the phone, at 8:15 p.m., at this time Qian Zhazhi and Daoan had entered a deep sleep, and I, quietly stood up, took off the mountaineering jacket and shirt in the night wind, tightened the belt, tied the mountaineering jacket to the waistband of the trousers, ** turned out the gold knife from the backpack with the upper body, and then used the gold knife to cut the vest, holding the gold knife in his right hand, With my left hand, I used the fabric of my vest and the rope of Lao Qi to tie my right hand with the golden knife and Lao Qi.

After doing this, I added a lot of firewood to the bonfire, and threw the paper ties that Qian Zha Paper had just tied into the fire, and then walked to Qian Zha Paper and Dao An's body, the two of them were sleeping comfortably, I thought that they were having different dreams, thinking of this, I gently put the two of them on the pillow where the mobile phone is, and canceled the alarm clock.

Get a good night's sleep, my brother.

When I had done this, I took two steps back, and with my left hand I grabbed the hammer, and the hammer with the long handle was already in my hand, and I have to say that Qian Za Paper was indeed a genius, and this hammer was pointed at both ends, like a murderous weapon in the hands of the murderous Vikings in the history of the world. If it is a real thing, it is estimated that the human head will enter the chest cavity when the hammer goes down, so I lit a cigarette and held it in my mouth, and then raised my left hand to resist the hammer on my shoulder, holding a golden knife in my right hand, and then shook my neck from side to side, and then walked towards the night breeze.

Yes, I'm going to break in, to break into this fierce land alone.

The reason why I did this is not to be reckless, in fact, I really don't want to let Qian Zha Paper and Dao An accompany me on the adventure, after all, this is my own business, Qian Zha Paper has a brother's reason to accompany me, but I also have a brother's reason not to let him have an accident, and I am really too cowardly, think about the reason why I have been able to survive since I entered this world different from ordinary people, either relying on luck or relying on the help of others, from the original Su Yidan, to the later Hubaihe Qian Zha Paper, This dependence did not give me a sense of peace of mind.

On the contrary, I blame myself, this self-blame comes from the unwillingness of my heart, why do I always have to rely on others? Why do you always have to get by?

Well, it used to be because I didn't have the ability, but what about when I have the ability? Why rely on habits?

I really don't want to do that, in fact, now that I have the ability, the experience of not relying on the abilities of others and fighting demons or even evil people, and if that's the case, then why can't I face my own challenges alone?

Well, I could, so I did, and I was going to fight my way with my knife, for myself, for my friend who was still asleep.

Thinking of this, my heart was much more relaxed, there was no moon in the endless night, the cigarette butt burning on the side of my mouth flickered brightly, I walked a long way sideways, until I was sure that I was far away from Qian Zha Paper and Dao'an, then I sneered, and then stepped into the realm that was said to have no place to stand.

Sure enough, before I could take five steps forward, a strong burst of yin qi had already hit my left hand, and I had already prepared, my left hand flicked desperately, without even turning my head, and the sledgehammer had already smashed an unknown ghost away.

Meanwhile.

My eyes suddenly blurred, only to see the phosphorus fire flickering on the land in front of me, as if the power had been out for a long time in the city at night suddenly restored the power of the building, one after another lit up, those ghost fires were big and small, the big ones were like calves, the small ones were the size of old dogs, the figures in the ghost fire flickered, and those shadows kept twisting their bodies, as if they were struggling in great pain and rushed towards me.

How many ghosts are there? I don't know, because I can't find it, but I don't have fear, because I know that they are exactly what I want to face, and they are also the stumbling blocks for me to go to the fox fairy's hometown.

The only thing I can do is kick them out.

So, I laughed again, then turned my head and spat out the burning cigarette butt, and then whispered to the demons who came at me: "Come, before dawn, and see if you die or I die." ”

It was really a battle that only existed in a nightmare, silent, but thrilling, in the fight, we didn't make any sound, and the attack was vicious, deadly, I had never seen it, the evil spirits who knew the name and didn't know the name flashed in front of my eyes one after another like a marquee, and I gritted my teeth and wielded a sledgehammer and a shaman's golden knife to fight them.

The path I walked was a simple straight line, this land was really like what Daoan said, there was basically no place to stay, after killing a ghost, another ghost quickly pounced, and the way I treated them was only to wave the weapons in my hand, one, two, and then I couldn't count anymore, I no longer had other thoughts in my head, fortunately, there was also the increasing pain in my body to keep me awake at all times, killing ghosts like numbness, it was indeed my state at that time.

In fact, that night I encountered all the evil cults imaginable and imaginable, including the legendary zombies, of course, I don't know what kind of zombies they were, I could only smell a foul smell, and the hammer was useless against them, I could only use a knife to cut them, fortunately, these zombies were not as powerful as the 'evil arhats' I had encountered before.

Time seems to have lost its concept, I just know that I have to keep moving forward, after being surrounded by a group of ghosts, killing, and then being surrounded by another group of ghosts, and then killing, once people's thoughts are simple, they are even more ferocious than animals, and a hammer knocks down a white rotten ghost, and a knife splits a fleshless one' At this moment, a ghost with a head like rotten tofu lay behind me and bit my shoulder, I didn't think much about it, I turned my head and opened my mouth to bite off most of its head.

The fox's teeth also seemed to be eager to kill, and the two rows of white Sensen's fangs were steaming cold, and the roots of the teeth became more and more itchy, and after I shook off the disgusting guy lying behind me, I ushered in a new wave of demons.

In this way, the night passed, and when the dark night on the horizon was slightly white, as if a slight glimmer of light was reflected on the feathers of a crow, I was already covered in bruises, lying on the ground, the hammer in my left hand had disappeared, and the strip of cloth on my right hand was stained with blood, I didn't know how far I had walked, I could only remember that the ghosts and evil things I had just encountered were more ferocious than the other, and the sound of those carrion corpses burrowing out of the land was still in my ears, and I really survived in the end, until I cut down the last demon, and I no longer had any strength in my body, So I lay straight on the ground, feeling swollen and painful, but my heart was happy, because no ghost appeared again, because in front of me was the foot of the two mountains.

I turned over with difficulty, shaking all over, at this time I found that my body did not obey the call, I could not even light a cigarette, blood and sweat had wet my pants, I looked up at the gradually blue night sky, and gradually relaxed the tense nerves, and at this moment, I finally let out a long-suppressed roar.

Yes, I did, and I didn't die.

It stands to reason that in that environment, I easily lost consciousness, but in fact I didn't, because my heart was full of excitement at that time, I finally proved myself, goodbye to weakness and dependence on others, so I gasped for breath, looking at the sky a little bit brighter, and when the surrounding scenery slowly became clear, my mobile phone finally rang, I took out my mobile phone with difficulty, and then put it to my ear tremblingly, and the anxious voice of Qian Zha Paper came on the phone: "Yaozi!! Where the hell have you died!? ”

Listening to his voice, I felt like I was about to cry, and I had no strength at that time, so I had to smile weakly and bitterly: "I sleepwalked to the foot of the mountain, you can come too, the road has been cleared by me." ”
