"I'm afraid so, did we scare him to death?" I guessed.

And at this moment, the coffin lid behind us flew up again, falling heavily on the ground, stirring up a thousand layers of dust.

"Little brother, and the big guy. Acai exclaimed.

When I looked around, I saw two puffs of white smoke coming out of the coffin, and we were all hiding on the side of the tomb.

After a quarter of an hour, there was no other movement in the burial chamber, but it was surprisingly calm.

"Little brother, has the contents of the coffin been killed by them?" asked Ah Cai.

I shook my head: "No, didn't you see a small one just now?"

"Wasn't that little one scared to death by us?" Liu Laosi said.

"How can anyone scare the rice dumplings to death, it's just a coincidence. I said.

Wu Shu picked up the blade, looked out, and immediately turned into the tomb.

We all followed inside, and found that there was no body in the coffin, and after several searches by Wu Shu, a mechanism was found at the bottom of the coffin.

We opened the mechanism and slowly lifted two large chests from under the coffin, locked with two large brass locks.

"What's going on with these two boxes?"

"Open!"

Wu Shu is still quite good at unlocking, and he opened the two boxes in the blink of an eye.

"Oh my god, there's so much gold, we're going to give it this time. "Ah Cai's eyes are going to fall into the box.

I said, "Take it and keep nothing." ”

"It's a piece of cake for me. Liu Lao Si said.

Wu Shu took out a leather bag from the toolkit and handed it to Liu Laosi, and said, "This bag was just made by me, and it is much stronger than a cloth bag." ”

"Well, I've got both of my bags here, and that's enough gold for a few of us to live for a few years. ”

I took a closer look at the gold, and felt that something was wrong.

"Let's go out first, and try to hide this gold, otherwise there will be too many things and it will not be convenient to walk. I said.

Liu Laosi said with a smile: "This is the closest to my old house, let's put all the excess gold there." ”

"Didn't you get looted by the sergeant in the first place?" Wu Shu said.

I said: "It's okay, now that city is under Yuan Shao's jurisdiction, and besides, the mechanism of his underground dark room can be completely repaired, so you should have a way to do this." ”

According to me, we went to Liu Laosi's house with a large amount of gold and found that his house had been empty for a long time.

Most of the neighbors have also moved away, and the place has become a deserted old house.

"Well, the more nobody, the better. I said.

"What should we do, little one?"

"Put the things down first, let's each bring some with us, and give the rest to Wu Shu to do it. ”

We have been squatting in Liu Laosi's old mansion for more than half a month, and Wu Shu has designed a super mechanism, even if we dig the entire mansion three feet into the ground, we can't take our gold away.

When everything was arranged, we set off to prepare for the tomb of Li Guang.

Passing through the mountains of Shudi, we found that there were many people who went up the mountain to find medicine, at first we were very curious, but when we asked what was going on, it aroused my interest.

"You say the king wants to sacrifice to the heavens?" I asked.

The old farmer replied: "Yes, it is only because we have been dying here for no reason recently, so the king decided to sacrifice to the heavens for the hunters and people in our mountains. ”

Wu Shu asked, "Who is your so-called king?"

"Look at you are outsiders, he is the backbone of our here, if it weren't for him, our people would have been arrested by the princes and sent to serve as soldiers. ”

"So your king is a bandit?" Liu Laosi said.

"What's wrong with the bandits, it's just that outsiders call them that, we all call them patron saints. The old farmer said.

I am also very curious, how can this so-called king have more appeal than the princes, and can actually envelop this group of people so loyally.

"Our king is a good man, he will distribute food to the hunters and medicine farmers in our mountains every New Year's Day, what a great man. ”

At our repeated requests, the medicine farmer agreed to take us to their festival.

"What the hell do you guys do?" asked the old medicine farmer.

I said, "We are Taoist priests, and we travel all over the world, and we will stay for a while wherever we go, so when we hear that you have a festival to worship the heavens here, of course we have to stay and open our eyes." ”

"What is that?" asked the medicine farmer.

"It's just fiddling with occult arts, all kinds of ghosts and gods, and so on. ”

When I finished speaking, the old farmer was immediately stunned, turned back to me and asked, "Do you know how to catch ghosts?"

"Uh!

"That's great, I didn't expect to meet you nobles today. ”

I laughed and said, "How do you say that?"

"Didn't I just say it, we have been dying here lately, and we can't find the reason, so I suspect there are ghosts. The old farmer said.

"Then you didn't find some other way to screen it?"

"No, I told the king, but he only said to wait. "Yao Nong Dao.

I laughed secretly, I didn't expect to come to this place and encounter such a thing, and actually help others catch ghosts.

Wu Shu leaned close to my ear and said, "Do you think their business is a ghost?"

"I don't know, let's take a look first, maybe it's still artificial. ”

Ah Cai said: "Why do you say that?"

"To be a king, do nothing, just to be good to these Orion medicine farmers?" I smiled: "As the saying goes, for bandits, righteousness comes first, but they can't afford to make a profit, so they have to have a harvest." ”

Liu Laosi seemed to understand something after hearing this, and he asked the old farmer: "You don't usually pay tribute to the king?"

"Of course, if you have anything good, most of you will send it to them. The old farmer laughed, "But he never confiscated anyone's things." ”

I asked, "Let's get down to business, have you found the bodies of the dead here?"

"Hey, what would you say if you found the body?" said Yao Nong.

In my heart, I had deep doubts about the so-called king.

We stayed in Yaonong and stayed for three days, and someone on the mountain beat the gong and shouted, "At noon, everyone will gather at the summit platform." ”

"Come with us, children. ”

On the way, I asked the medicine farmer about their dead people, and I said that I didn't even see the corpses, how did I know they were dead.

He was right that the king's men had found on the mountain the clothes that several of them had worn before, all stained with blood.

So they deduced that the people were dead, but there were no bodies, and no one could tell what was going on.

However, according to him, most of those who disappeared were men in the prime of life, young people.

This phenomenon makes me feel even more strange, since there is a commonality, it proves that this matter is absolutely strange.

We followed the medicine farmer up the mountain and saw that the huge offering table was full of offerings, and the suckling pig melons and fruits were on display.

I found that there were hundreds of people who came to participate in the sacrifice, and the leader was a man with a cloth crown and a long beard.

"At the beginning of the festival, please incense the king. ”

After the ceremony begins, a full hour passes after the incense is poured in turns.

After the crowd dispersed, the medicine farmer introduced us to their king, who looked at us.

"Can you catch ghosts?"

"Understand. ”

"That's great, we've had a streak of deaths here recently, you can help find out. ”

I said, "No problem, since it's also our fate to pass by here, this is what we should do." ”

The king took us to their cottage and sent for a few wooden chests.

When the wooden boxes were opened, they were filled with bloody clothing, each with a name written on it.

"These are the things of those who died?"

"Yes, that's all I can offer you, and the rest will depend on a few masters to find it. ”

I asked, "Then the place where they disappeared, the place where the clothes were found, and the approximate time of death, I think the king should be able to provide us with it, right?"

"It's easy, I'll call two people to follow you and show you the way. ”

A moment later, two minions came and took us around the mountain.

Everywhere we passed, I would ask Wu Shu to sit down and take a closer look.

When the location of the last piece of clothing was found, we told the minions to go back, and Wu Shu began to search in the same place.

For half a day, we didn't find anything.

"It's weird, the big living person died and left his clothes, what does that mean?"

"There's a ghost!" I said.

Ah Cai smiled: "I don't think it's right, Brother Xiao must have come to a conclusion, I guess he even came up with a way." ”

"You know everything. I said to Liu Laosi again: "Since they like to find people with physical strength, then we will push the boat down the river, you go to play the role of a powerful person, and if you encounter any situation, leave us a mark." ”

"That's fine, just a few monkey people on this mountain, I really didn't take them seriously. Liu Laosi said.

We wandered back to the cottage, and I said to the creditor, "There are definitely ghosts on this mountain, let me do a ritual, and we will stay for a few days when we are fine, and then we will leave." ”

"That's the best, if you have any needs, just speak, and we'll do our best to meet them. ”

"No, I have something ready-made. ”

I set up an altar in the courtyard of the cottage and posed according to the method of Zhang Xiaostick.

Liu Laosi and Wu Shuxian left, Ah Cai helped beside me, and after burning some spirit runes, I chanted words in my mouth, shook my hand and played a lot of spirit runes, and sparks filled the sky.

This attracted everyone in the cottage to watch, but not long after, Liu Laosi actually ran back from outside, and there was still a person under his armpit.

"Who is this?" I asked.

Liu Laosi laughed and said: "It's really a rabbit with grass, and he actually caught a sneaky person, do you think he is a human or a ghost?"

I turned my head and found that this person was actually a sergeant in a military uniform, could it be that this place was being targeted by the princes? However, in order to continue the rituals, I asked Liu Laosi to hand this person over to the king and let him act according to the plan.
