Remember [Literature Bus] in one second, and read it for free without pop-ups!

Lingxiao Peak is on the northernmost side of Taiyuan, adjacent to the area of the warlord Zhong Yumin in the north and the warlord Chen Muhe in the south, which is also a watershed between the north and the south, and it has become an ownerless mountain because of the dangerous terrain that no one climbs.

In the previous life, there was a shocking case in Taiyuan City, a group of rogues occupied the mountain as the king, burning, killing and looting all kinds of evil, Zhong Yumin's army came to arrest but because the rogue cut the chain bridge between the peaks, and gave up at all, and later Chen Jibai brought the long-range artillery of the Westerners to blow up the mountain directly, which caught the group of rogues.

If I remember correctly, the rogues who were executed were all bald, and they also found all kinds of monks' things in their lair in the mountains, such as robes, wooden fish, green lanterns, ancient Buddha statues, and so on.

The most important thing is that the leader of the rogue has a scar on his hand similar to Master Fuhui in front of him, I have seen black and white photos in the newspaper in my previous life, I don't remember the specific appearance, but it feels similar.

There was a thump in my heart, and a cold sweat broke out on my spine.

It is very likely that the monks in this Nanhua Temple are all rogues, and they have not yet grown their team, so they are not as arrogant as in their previous lives, but if they grow up slowly, they will do all the same evil as in their previous lives, and now they want to deal with me and Liu Xiangjun, presumably under the instructions of An Meiling, and privately made a silver transaction.

This group of people is not good at stubble, and Liu Xiangjun and I must have a hard time in the middle of the night.

I silently calculated in my heart, they arranged me and Liu Xiangjun to the most secluded and remote West Wing, must have wanted to make us isolated in the middle of the night, and when we were found on the second day, we were powerless to return to the sky, but we couldn't put the responsibility on their heads?

But what exactly will they do, and what will they do so that they don't have to be seen through this as a conspiracy, not a coincidence?

"I don't believe it at all, it's better to go to a foreigner's church and worship Jesus a few times."

Liu Xiangjun shook Shen Jiashu's arm and coquettishly, thinking that she also smelled danger and knew that only by holding Shen Jiashu to death could there be a way out.

Seeing that Shen Jiashu was about to soften her heart, An Yunyu hurriedly persuaded: "Aunt Xiang, there is also a big sister with you, this is also for the sake of the Shen family and for the sake of the father, if you believe in this thing, you still have to abide by the rules of the master." ”

Master Fuhui nodded, beckoned to find five little novices, and transferred four rough mothers-in-law from the back kitchen of the temple, Liu Xiangjun was a little nervous, but seeing that Shen Jiashu had completely believed it, he only held her hand and patted it gently: "It's okay, just stay for one night, and wait for the master to open the altar tomorrow to expel the evil spirit." ”

Liu Xiangjun glanced at me anxiously, and I shook my head gently, signaling her to be calm.

——

The five little novices walked in front, followed by the four rough mothers-in-law, and Liu Xiangjun and I were sandwiched between them and walked forward.

Along the way, no one spoke.

The mountain road became more and more remote, and the more she walked, the more she couldn't see people, Liu Xiangjun was obviously nervous, her hands had been protecting her bulging lower abdomen, and her face was a little pale.

My mind raced to the point that if I knew what they were going to do, I could be prepared in the middle of the night, and at least I could get my life back.

It just so happened that at this time, a fatter mother-in-law picked up a few pieces of wood to carry, and another thin mother-in-law glared at her: "What to do when you pick up so much, bring oil and fire at night, and light it." ”

I said this softly and in a low voice, but I kept staring at them, so I could tell from the way they spoke, and suddenly, I reacted.

What accident in the mountains is most like providence?

It's not a forest fire, what else!

The fists in my sleeves clenched little by little, An Meiling and An Yunmei, the mother and daughter, were so vicious that they were about to put me to death, heh, but after thinking about it, it's not strange, they have always wanted me to die in their previous life, if I hadn't been obedient to make money to provide them with convenience, where would they keep me for so long?

But even if they can't tolerate me, but the child in Liu Xiangjun's belly is innocent, how can they do it?

"Miss? Miss? ”

Liu Xiangjun looked at me with a wrong face and pulled my sleeve.

I closed my eyes and wrote a word in the palm of her hand: fire.

Liu Xiangjun was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted, her eyes widened in surprise, and I nodded silently at her.

Silently walked for a while, the candle in the lantern was shining, and I had vaguely seen the shadow of the courtyard of the West Wing, just a few houses made of yellow mud, which had long been abandoned and no one lived in, which confirmed my guess even more, only in such an abandoned place, a fire is less, it is possible to say that the mountain forest is on fire and then the house is in disrepair and collapsed.

It's vicious!

"When you arrive, let's stay here in the middle of the night."

A little novice pointed at me and Liu Xiangjun, and recited Amitabha Buddha in a matter-of-fact manner.

The rest of the people didn't care about us, walked straight forward and randomly picked two yellow mud houses and went in, probably to prepare to deal with me and Liu Xiangjun in the middle of the night.

There was a black pressure all around, and I couldn't see my fingers, except for a paper lantern in Liu Xiangjun's hand, and a small flashlight in my hand, there was not even an electric light here.

"Miss, what should we do, can we escape?"

Liu Xiangjun swallowed her saliva and grabbed the corner of my clothes tightly.

I looked around in the light of my flashlight, and found that there were two mothers-in-law and three novices sitting in the four directions of south, east, west, and north, as if blocking our escape route.

In order to confirm my thoughts, I pulled Liu Xiangjun and walked two steps in the direction of the chain bridge when I was stopped by one of the mothers-in-law, and she said in a strange tone: "Madam, it's late at night, don't run around, otherwise we will be taken away by a wild wolf, and we won't be able to save it." ”

I pulled Liu Xiangjun back and simply advanced to the yellow mud house closest to the direction of the chain bridge.

As soon as he entered, Liu Xiangjun was anxious: "What to do, what to do...... I don't want to die......"

Who wants to die?

I can't die if I live again, there are too many things to do!

I didn't speak, my eyes looked around the yellow mud house, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, a spirit I remembered something, turned around and pushed the door and walked out, two little novices blocked my way: "Miss, don't run around." ”

"It's just going to the bathroom." I deliberately put on the posture of a rich lady and pouted in disgust, "You shouldn't let me solve it in the house, right?" I can't do such a disgusting thing. ”

Xiao Shami stared at me: "Miss Shen, the conditions here are not as good as those in the city, and there are no such high-end and clean toilets, just bear with it, I'll get you a commode." ”

"No, I'm not used to it." I quickly took off the chain around my neck and the clip on my head and put it in his hand, "Let those two women follow me, it's better to go to the woods over there to solve it than here." ”

As soon as they saw me take out good things, their eyes were straight, and they couldn't pretend to be monks at all, so they immediately beckoned the two mothers-in-law to take me there.

Liu Xiangjun also wanted to follow, so I glanced at her and told her not to worry.

I took a flashlight and walked forward, in fact, it was all up to luck, if the wind rose in the middle of the night when this group of people lit a fire outside the house, Liu Xiangjun and I were trapped in the house and couldn't get out, even if we didn't burn to death, we had to choke to death by the smoke, but if I could sneak out without them knowing, and their attention was not on us while the fire was up, then there was a chance to escape!

There is a kind of grass that grows in the remote mountain forest, I don't know the specific name, but I gave it a nickname called Jicao, that kind of grass can melt yellow mud if it is chopped and mashed and added with hot water!

If I can find these things, I can chisel a hole through the back wall of the yellow mud house, and when the fire starts, they will only block the doors and windows in front, because the back is just a wall, so I shouldn't care, then Liu Xiangjun and I will chisel the wall open, and we will have a chance to run.

It's just that I don't know if there will be this kind of grass here, and most importantly, it's dark here, I only have a flashlight, and two fierce mothers-in-law follow me, and I don't have the time or space to look for it.

Just as I was thinking quickly, a mother-in-law behind me suddenly reached out and pressed my shoulder, and looked at me with a sneer: "Miss Shen, you didn't come out to go to the toilet, did you?" ”

My heart trembled, and I was nervous.
