The moon and stars are scarce, and the bonfires are lit under the cliff, and the ghosts and ghosts of Naihe Street pour out from the Tomb of the Ghost King, gather around the fire, singing and dancing, a lively and extraordinary scene. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

And beside a big tree on the Zhihui Cliff, I saw a black shadow standing in front of the tree, holding a pitch-black long stick, showing his strength against the trunk of the tree-

"Da, da, da, da......"

Mu Tiezhu vigorously waved the eyebrow crying stick, hit the trunk, and cracked the big tree, only to see pieces of bark fall to the ground, revealing a dazzling round hole on the trunk, which shows the weight of Mu Tiezhu's stick.

"Slap, slap, slap...... Hehe, Brother Pillar is really wonderful!"

With a burst of applause, I saw Ji Xuelan, who was dressed in white, walking up to the Zhihui Cliff with a wine glass in her hand, and smiled at Mu Tiezhu next to the big tree.

"Huh~ Gongtou, it's you, why did you come up?"

Mu Tiezhu took back the mourning stick, wiped the sweat on his forehead with a towel, and asked Ji Xuelan breathlessly.

"I think the banquet is a bit noisy, come up and be quiet......"

Ji Xuelan walked to Mu Tiezhu's side, handed him the wine glass, was silent for a while, and said in a thoughtful whisper:

"Brother Zhuzi, about Brother Shen Bin......"

"Alright, Barhead, you don't have to explain this to me......"

Before Ji Xuelan could finish speaking, Mu Tiezhu waved his hand and interrupted her.

I saw Mu Tiezhu looking at the moon in the sky and sighing, and said:

"Gongtou, I've calmed down and thought about it for the past two days, and I think you're doing the right thing......

In that case, sacrificing one person to save the big guy is indeed the right trade-off that a wise leader should make, but that's how my personality ......

Barhead, I'm a rough man, I said something that day, don't mind, this glass of wine will be my excuse to you......"

After speaking, Mu Tiezhu drank all the wine in his hand.

"This ...... I ......"

Ji Xuelan originally wanted to ease the relationship with Mu Tiezhu, but she didn't expect Mu Tiezhu to still have a grudge, and the phrase "wise leader" obviously contained sarcasm.

Originally, Ji Xuelan was ready to be scolded, but she didn't expect Mu Tiezhu to just apologize to her without being salty, but she couldn't say what she had thought about a long time ago.

So, neither of the two of them spoke anymore, and stood awkwardly on the Zhihui cliff.

"By the way, Gongtou, what do you think of this kid Fan Tianjiu?"

After a long while, Mu Tiezhu suddenly broke his silence and asked Ji Xuelan beside him.

"Why did you suddenly ask about this?"

Seeing Mu Tiezhu suddenly change the topic, Ji Xuelan was stunned for a moment and said strangely.

"That's right...... At the Jizowang Temple just now, I originally wanted to use the soul hook rope to tease Fan Tianjiu's kid, but I didn't expect to be raised by him and dodged......

To tell you the truth, Gongtou, although I didn't use all my strength just now, he seems to be the first one to dodge my blow, among all the freshmen I have taught......"

Mu Tiezhu frowned and wondered.

"Hehe, you suspect that your martial arts have regressed, that's why you ran to this cliff to practice, right?"

The corners of Ji Xuelan's mouth curled slightly, then sighed, comforted him and said:

"Brother Zhuzi, Fan Tianjiu's kid is angry like a gangster, he can dodge your attack, it must be a coincidence that the blind cat met the dead mouse, don't care too much......"

"Really, how do you explain the fact that he stoned the Lady of Eight Limbs to death? It seems that this kind of thing can be done by chance, can he uproot the big tree alive......

Obviously, Mu Tiezhu didn't agree with Ji Xuelan's coincidental statement, and asked suspiciously.

"Oh, is it? Hehe, Brother Zhuzi, what do you think of Fan Tianjiu's kid?"

Ji Xuelan smiled.

"Hmm...... I think that although Fan Tianjiu's kid looks like a fool on the outside, judging from the two things of pulling out a tree and smashing Mrs. Eight Limbs to death, and dodging my attack, it seems to have a lot of potential, and it won't be ......"

Speaking of this, a trace of nervousness flashed in Mu Tiezhu's eyes, and he turned his head to Ji Xuelan beside him and said:

"Gongtou, you said that Fan Tianjiu's kid wouldn't be 'that kind of thing', right?"

"What's that?"

Ji Xuelan was stunned when she heard this, and said in confusion.

"This is the ......"

Speaking of this, Mu Tiezhu picked up the mourning stick and drew a big word "king" on the ground.

Ji Xuelan frowned, looked down at the word 'king' on the ground, thought for a while, suddenly her eyes lit up, and she suddenly realized-

"You say he's ...... Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Before she could finish speaking, Ji Xuelan opened her mouth and denied it again and again, and a trace of panic flashed on her pretty face.

"Alas~ Gongtou, I don't want it to be, but Fan Tianjiu is too similar to 'that person'......"

Mu Tiezhu sighed and said to Ji Xuelan thoughtfully:

"Gongtou, at the beginning, 'that person' came to this impermanent university with us.

Like this Fan Tianjiu, 'he' also showed amazing potential as soon as he arrived at school......

Do you remember? When we first came here, a few sophomores saw that you were beautiful and tried to tease you, but they were beaten up by 'him'......

Bar head, those hooligan students are all masters of one bar and two bars, and the three of us were rookies who didn't know anything at the time.

But as it turned out, they were all beaten to death by 'that man'.

That incident shocked the whole school, everyone thought he was an unborn master at the time, and you still fell in love with him......"

Speaking of this, the expression on Mu Tiezhu's face became even more nervous, and he turned his head and said to Ji Xuelan with a solemn expression:

“...... But then we found out that he was, he was 'that kind of thing'!!

If you don't want the bloody case of four years ago to happen again, then you can't help but guard against Fan Tianjiu......"

After listening to Mu Tiezhu's words, Ji Xuelan's expression suddenly fell into deep thought.

I saw her frowning and thinking for a while, then turned her head to Mu Tiezhu beside her and said coldly:

"Pillar, I'll give you a task......"

"Say ...... please?"

Mu Tiezhu said solemnly when he heard this.

"From today onwards, you keep an eye on Fan Tianjiu, this kid, and if there is anything unusual about him, report it to me immediately!"

"Yes——!"

Mu Tiezhu responded in a positive voice, and then asked in a low voice:

"This ...... Barhead, if you finally find out that Fan Tianjiu's kid is really that kind of 'thing', what are you going to do?"

Hearing Mu Tiezhu say this, Ji Xuelan was silent for a while, and sighed:

"If it turns out that the kid is indeed that kind of 'thing'...... Alas~ Then I had to send him to the Infernal Hell, so that he would never be able to be reborn. ”

"Barhead, this ......"

Hearing that Ji Xuelan was so resolute, Mu Tiezhu wanted to open his mouth to say something, but after pondering for a while, he frowned and took the words back......

"Okay, Zhuzi, at present, the Brigade Committee has gone to the General Bureau of Xudu to make a report, and the Jingfeng Squadron Committee is still studying in the City of Vain.

Before they come back, you must keep this matter strictly confidential and not tell anyone, otherwise it may cause panic among the teachers and students of the whole school.

Don't forget! Although this matter is still just speculation between you and me, if there is anything wrong with that kid Fan Tianjiu, you have to report it to me immediately!"

"Oh no——! Sister Lan——! it's not good......"

Just as Ji Xuelan whispered to Mu Tiezhu, she saw Luo Xiaojuan running up from under the cliff in a panic, shouting at her anxiously as she ran.

"Xiaojuan, don't worry, take your time, tell me what's wrong?"

Ji Xuelan patted Xiaojuan's back and comforted.

"Sister Lan, something's wrong...... Hei Wuchang, who was on duty just now, found that Fan Tianjiu's kid and he led the two people to run away——!"

Ji Xuelan was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and said with an indifferent smile:

"Hehe, that kid really doesn't give up...... Why? Are they running away again?"

"No! No!"

Luo Xiaojuan shook her head again and again when she heard this, and said anxiously to Ji Xuelan:

"According to the guards' Black Impermanence, they seem to have run in the direction of the Santu Forest!"

"What?!Santulin?!Oh no——!"

Hearing the direction of Fan Tianjiu's escape, Ji Xuelan was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly turned her head and ordered in a loud voice to Mu Tiezhu beside her:

"Pillars, you immediately lead the team to escort the residents of Demon Street back to Nai He Street, let them close the doors and windows, and don't come out without news from me——!"

"Yes——!"

Mu Tiezhu clenched his fists when he heard this, and took the order to leave.

Waiting for Mu Tiezhu to leave, Ji Xuelan immediately turned her head and ordered Luo Xiaojuan beside her:

"Xiaojuan, you go and let all the black and white impermanence who are not on duty take the guys, and immediately gather here, and prepare to go with me to Santulin to search the mountains and rescue people——!"

"Okay, Sister Lan!"

After speaking, Xiaojuan took the order and turned around and ran away with a gust of wind.

So, Ji Xuelan was the only one left on the silent Zhihui Cliff, only to see her eyes staring at the dark forest sea under the cliff, and muttered with a frosty jade face:

Fan Tianjiu...... You're a scourge......"

........................

When the moon was bright, the bright moonlight sprinkled the entire misty valley, and I saw that in the dark valley path, three figures with torches were moving carefully.

"Grandma, those two collapsed Lao Tzu chrysanthemums were sour and numb, and they felt awkward when they walked......

Fan Tianjiu held a torch in front of him to lead the way, rubbing his buttocks and muttering scolding.

"Hmph~ Dead girl, don't let Lao Tzu meet you again, otherwise, Lao Tzu will stuff a bag of 'Ghost Weasel Stinky Pill' into your mouth, so that you can also taste the taste of becoming a 'fart god'......"

"Oops~ Okay, Brother Jiu, since you have already escaped, don't complain......"

Si Bi'an followed behind Fan Tianjiu, and said to Fan Tianjiu in front of him while carefully moving forward while touching the rocks.

"Yes, two brothers, the top priority for the three of us at present is to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible, and the senseless dispute may delay the big thing......

The one I met at Jizowang Temple, the "Xiucai" who spoke Wen Zou Zou followed behind the two of them, holding a torch and saying uneasily.

"Oops~ Don't worry, your ninth brother and I have been on the moon for nine days since I was a child, and I have been catching turtles in the five oceans, what mountain road has Lao Tzu not walked?

It's a little bit bigger, and we can walk through it in less than two hours, but you'......"

Speaking of this, Fan Tianjiu turned his head with a torch and said to Xiucai behind him:

"Hey——! Xiucai, what about that dragging kid who was with you just now, why didn't he run with us?"

"Oh, I invited that brother to run away with him, but after seeing the magical spells of those teachers, that brother thought that the impermanence high school was quite interesting, so he decided to stay. ”

Xiucai opened his mouth and replied.

"Hmph~ A few street ghost tricks fooled him, it's really in his head......"

Fan Tianjiu sneered disdainfully, then turned around, raised the torch in front of him, and instructed the two behind him:

"Almost ——! ahead of the grove, you should follow closely and don't get lost——!"

After speaking, Fan Tianjiu led the two of them, holding torches, and quickly walked out of the valley and came to a dense forest.

It was the middle of the night, and I saw that the small forest in front of the three of them was quiet and dark, and the purple mist was slowly flowing and drifting among the trees.

What's even more strange is that in front of the woods, there is a row of boulders.

The boulders were placed every five or six steps, and between each two boulders was a strip of yellow sheet paper, on which were written with words in cinnabar.

And these yellow sheets tied to the boulder are connected together, like a cordon, enclosing the entire forest and extending into the distance......

"What the fuck is this?"

Walking to the edge of the woods, Fan Tianjiu muttered while pulling up the yellow table paper between the boulders, holding a torch and shining a light on the words on it.

Fan Tianjiu found that although all the Chinese characters were written on the yellow paper tape, he didn't know any of them.

So Fan Tianjiu had no choice but to turn his head and say to Xiucai behind him:

"Hey ——! Xiucai, isn't your classical Chinese very draggy? Come and see, what is written on this yellow paper tape?"

Hearing this, Xiucai leaned over, looked down at the words on it carefully by the firelight, and said suspiciously:

"Hmm...... In my humble opinion, this article seems to be a 'mantra'......"

"Mantra, what?"

Fan Tianjiu said inexplicably.

"Oh, the mantra is a direct transliteration of Sanskrit, a Buddhist scripture that is said to have miraculous powers.

It's like the kind of thing in Journey to the West, where the Buddha hangs on Wuzhi Mountain and is used to suppress Sun Wukong......"

"Oh, really?"

Fan Tianjiu said stunned.

"Of course, the third aunt under me is a Buddhist, and the younger brother has seen something similar to this in her house......"

"Huh, it's really true! Brother Jiu! Come and see ——!."

As he was talking, he saw Si Bi'an holding a torch and standing next to a boulder and greeted Fan Tianjiu loudly.

When Fan Tianjiu heard this, he followed Xiucai to Si Bi'an's side, and looked at the boulder by the firelight, only to see six big characters written on the boulder with cinnabar - Om Mani Horn Mi

I saw Si Bi'an pointing at these words and saying to Fan Tianjiu:

"Brother Jiu, on the Five Finger Mountain used to suppress Sun Wukong in Journey to the West, these words are hung. ”

"Oh, yes? Are you sure?"

Fan Tianjiu looked at these words and wondered.

"Of course, the old version of Journey to the West is released every winter and summer vacation, I have watched it dozens of times since I was a child, and I will never be mistaken, it is these words!"

Spian replied affirmatively.

"Hmm...... I see......"

Fan Tianjiu lowered his head when he heard this, and while thinking, he muttered:

"It seems that Wu Chengen checked the true Buddhist scriptures when he wrote Journey to the West......

Wait a minute! This mantra in Journey to the West is used to suppress Sun Monkey, so who is this mantra to suppress here?"

Thinking of this, Fan Tianjiu suddenly frowned, turned around and held a torch to shine into the woods, and said tremblingly:

"It's difficult, is there anything in this forest that needs to be suppressed?"

The woods at midnight were gloomy and quiet, like a black hole abyss that devoured heaven and earth, and as soon as the cold forest wind blew, Fan Tianjiu and the three of them trembled with fright.

"Nine, ninth brother, let's not go in, I have a bad ...... Ah——!h

Just as Si Bi'an was trembling and opened his mouth to persuade Fan Tianjiu, but he was only halfway through his words, and suddenly his whole body stiffened, and his face was pale and frozen......

"Anzi, what's wrong with you?"

Discovering Si Bi'an's strange appearance, Fan Tianjiu turned his head to look at him and asked strangely.

"Nine, Brother Nine, someone, someone grabbed my leg...... Wow——!"

As soon as Si Bi'an finished speaking, he heard a miserable scream, and his body suddenly fell forward.

Then, I saw that Si Bi'an's whole body was dragged by something as if he was being dragged by something, and in a blink of an eye, he was dragged into the grass at the edge of the woods!

"Anzi ——!"

Suddenly appeared, Fan Tianjiu fell forward in shock, stretched out his hands and grabbed into the grass, grabbed an arm, and shouted:

"Anzi! Hold on! I'm holding you——! I'm holding you——! I'm going to come out for Lao Tzu!"

Fan Tianjiu shouted and pulled hard, only to hear a bang, and two miserable white arms were pulled out of the grass by him-

I saw that the hands were skinny, the white skin was highly rotten, and the black holes were bleeding pus and blood.

As soon as he saw these dead hands, Fan Tianjiu was dumbfounded-

"I'm rubbing! it's ......"

"Woo ——!"

Before Fan Tianjiu's words fell, he heard a terrible ghost cry from the woods, and the ghost hands suddenly opened, grabbed Fan Tianjiu's collar violently, and dragged him into the woods......

"Wow——! help——! help, help, help, help......"

As Fan Tianjiu's screams became farther and farther away, the entire Santu Ghost Forest gradually regained its tranquility, leaving only the three strange humanoid trails in front of the forest......
