In Chishan Castle, every household actually enshrines a stone statue of a woman, but most of the houses worship a thin layer of dust has accumulated on the altar, and the incense burner looks more like it has not been lit for many years. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

And today, the city suddenly heard the mournful and tactful crying, but every family that was awakened invariably lit three incense sticks, and worshiped respectfully to the stone sculpture of the woman on the altar, the body trembled slightly, and there were words in the mouth.

Most of the people in the city have lived here since King Zhou Youwang built the city, so they all remember that the legend passed down from generation to generation is also regarded as an ominous source by the world.

"It's back......," said a woman shivering in bed in one family's house, shivering in bed, to the man next to her, who was also frightened, "and she is back in the city......

The man beside her had an ugly face and said to the woman: "You mother-in-law......!

"Don't you listen to the voices outside?" said the woman, pale, ignoring her husband's increasingly ugly countenance, "Who has not ......heard of anyone born in this city?"

The man interrupted her and muttered, "No...... It's been a hundred years since they were safe...... No......"

The people of Chishan City, on this day, finally remembered the horror that the city had been buried in the story in the past.

......

Inside the Castle Lord's Mansion.

The minister, who was sitting cross-legged in silence, opened his eyes suddenly.

The voice...... The sound is ......"

He looked up and saw the stone statue of the woman enshrined in front of him, perhaps it was his delusion, and now the stone statue became more and more lifelike, and even the long hair seemed to tremble slightly.

The minister got up slowly, there seemed to be a touch of excitement in his eyes, and even his body trembled a little because of this.

Inside a large house in Ikeyama Castle.

The two men in red robes couldn't suppress their excitement, but there was complicated fear in their eyes.

"How could it be...... Is this her voice?"

"Ominous source!"

"But no matter what, as long as she appears, it means ......"

"That fire was kindled again......"

"The beacon fire lit by King Zhou You will eventually belong to Dan Cheng Tianfu!"

......

In the courtyard where the winter official was hiding, the scuffle between the four sides stopped at this moment, and under the concealed appearance, everyone present was pale and frightened.

The man in the hat moved his Adam's apple lightly, swallowed his saliva, and said hoarsely, "Is it her voice......?"

When everyone in the audience heard this, it was as if the speculation in their hearts had been spoken, and their faces became more and more pale.

"Impossible...... This can't be ......," Xuan Yi muttered, "It's just a story......

The two Xianlu monks who were fighting him earlier muttered, "You were not born in this city, but you don't know that this is not as simple as a story......

"This is the source of the foreboding of Chishan City, an indelible curse!"

The last man to appear couldn't laugh anymore, looking into the distance and muttering.

"But it's been quiet for hundreds of years, why does she reappear......"

"Since the courtier An was pardoned as the city lord, the city has been restored to peace, and it is rumored that the source of the ominous source has been suppressed by Han Gaozu......"

Zhang Xiyun hung in the air, full of doubts, since this voice sounded in the city, the people from all over the world who came for him before stopped caring about him, but everyone behaved strangely, could it be that this voice represented?

He listened carefully, and couldn't help but shudder, this mournful cry was really a bit weird, making people feel cold all over the body.

In the center of the entire Chishan City, a cloud of ghostly fire suddenly ignited, like fireflies floating in the air.

Zhang Xiyun knew that it was strange, but he didn't know what was going on, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

In fact, it was not only him, but also the people present who had encountered such a thing for the first time, although they knew more than Zhang Xiyun, but they had only heard the story of the Chishan City passed down from generation to generation, and had never experienced it personally.

"Spectre ...... Fire," someone muttered, "the story says that after the Spectre appears, it is ......"

"A ball of fire as bright as the sun rises!"

As soon as the man's voice fell, the city suddenly brightened.

It's not dawn, but in the middle of Chishan Castle, it's like a red sun has risen from under the earth!

Suddenly, the night sky of the whole city was lit up, as if it were the middle of the day.

The people of the city were hiding in their homes and shivering, and even the inside of the house was brightly illuminated.

"Curse has come upon this city once again!"

Except for the people in the courtyard, no one in the city came out of the house, and at this moment everyone in the courtyard seemed to wake up.

"Don't look at that flame again!" someone shouted.

However, at this time, many people had already seen the rising fire with their own eyes, and suddenly sweated profusely and let out fearful exclamations.

Zhang Xiyun also saw the flame, and when he heard the shout, he hurriedly turned his back to the rising flame, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and when he heard the screams of the people around him, he was even more frightened in his heart, he didn't know what would happen next.

"What the hell is going on in this city!" Zhang Xiyun shouted.

"It's a curse...... It was the curse of King Zhou You, who had ignited the beacon fire despite dissuasion in the past, and also opened the curse ......!" Xuan Yi muttered.

Zhang Xiyun's expression froze, King Zhou You lit the beacon fire, isn't this the allusion of the princes of the beacon fire drama in the previous life, why did it become a curse that makes people smell and change in this world!

What exactly does the beacon fire refer to, is it the flame that is rising now?

He thought to himself, but suddenly there was a scream beside him, and he glanced at it, only to see a man in black nearby holding his head with both hands, looking extremely painful, and kept screaming.

Not only that, but the screams rang out from several nearby people at the same time, and they all looked extremely painful.

The leaders of the Quartet all had drastic changes in their faces, and at this moment they already knew that they were truly facing the curse that had been passed down from ancient times, and there was no longer a trace of luck in their hearts.

"Let's go!" The faces of the two black-clothed Xianlu monks changed several times, and they didn't care about killing Zhang Xiyun at all, and fled towards the outside of the city.

"Just leave Chishan Castle...... Get out of Ikeyama Castle!"

And the man wearing the hat was also not slow to react, and he used the escape technique, and instantly fled for several miles, not daring to turn back at all.

At the moment when they chose to escape, the Xuanyi pardon law had been broken by the three of them, Zhang Xiyun knew that something was wrong, and when he was about to flee from here, the screams around him disappeared, making his figure stagnate, looking at the side and glancing.

The people who screamed before turned their eyes into a cloudy one at this moment, and a ghostly fire burned beside them!

Zhang Xiyun's pupils shrank, and his heart suddenly filled with great fear, why did the state of these people seem to be familiar at this moment!

"Dry corpse...... Yin soldiers!" Zhang Xiyun lost his voice, those people's eyes, those cloudy eyes, were like the Yin soldiers and dried corpses in the evil tomb.

He remembered the strange Yin soldiers in the tomb again, and suddenly sweated profusely, and without the slightest intention of staying, he was about to leave far away.

Xuanyi on the side also performed a retreat technique, and his figure disappeared in place, not knowing where to go.

Zhang Xiyun wanted to flee outside the city, but when he was about to perform the escape technique, he saw the two black-clothed figures in front of him who were cultivating the Immortal Road paused, and after two breaths, he let out a miserable scream.

"Even they ......!"

The eyes of the two men in black also turned cloudy, and a ghostly fire ignited beside them, and they turned to face the flames behind them, and there was no pain on their faces, but they were extremely numb and expressionless.

"Door ......"

Suddenly, Zhang Xiyun seemed to hear an eerie echo in his ears, which made his hairs stand on end, and his heart was cold.

All the people whose eyes turned into a cloudy began to move, and they walked slowly towards the center of Chishan Castle, or towards the flames!

Zhang Xiyun didn't have the courage to take a step for a while, and his body froze in mid-air.

And those people walked past him, their eyes staring straight ahead, and Zhang Xiyun could even see the flame rising behind him from their eyes.

In the flames, there seemed to be a shadow, like a human figure, with arms stretched out and head hanging down.

Like Jesus crucified.

For some reason, when Zhang Xiyun saw the figure, he unconsciously wanted to turn his head, and even before his thoughts were clear, his body had already begun to move, and he slowly turned back.

"Brother Xinwu ......"

In his mind, a female voice suddenly sounded, crisp and pleasant, and the tone seemed to be more like having known him for a long time.

But this female voice actually called him "Xin Wu"!

This call undoubtedly made Zhang Xiyun wake up in an instant and stop turning around.

But behind him, there seemed to be a figure touching his shoulder.

"Brother Xinwu...... Are you finally back......?"

The voice was like a mournful cry, but with an unconcealable joy, as if waiting for the eternal years.

"Kite has been waiting for you for a long time......"

"Long ......"

Such a poignant remark made Zhang Xiyun dare not answer at all, let alone look back.

Who would call him Xinwu?

"The beacon fire is lit, you're back......"

"But why don't you look back and look at the kite......"

The voice became more and more poignant, and it was heartbreaking.

"Ji Gongyan said that you were dead, and said that you don't want the kite anymore, but the kite never believed ......"

But at this moment, Zhang Xiyun felt his scalp tingle.

He didn't know what would have happened if he had answered or looked back, maybe he would have seen endless horror and suddenly die, so he became more and more afraid.

Behind him, the hand that reached his shoulder fell lightly on his face, extremely cold, like ice pith.

Immediately after, he felt the hands around his waist and the body seemed to be pressed against his back.

The touch that seems to be there is still cold.

The corners of Zhang Xiyun's mouth were helplessly hooked, his face was extremely stiff, and he showed a wry smile.

He only felt that he was going to die here today, this strange scene, made him feel that he was entangled by a female ghost, maybe this is the curse in Chishan City, as described in the novel in the previous life, the female ghost of the unjust soul?

"Death is death, so be a ghost!" he thought to himself, since he couldn't escape, he simply turned around and looked at what was sacred!

Fear is human nature, and it is difficult to erase it even if he cultivates, not to mention that he is now just a mortal monk.

Although he thought like this in his heart, when it was really time to turn around, he was still hesitant, and he was even worried that it would be too embarrassing to really see a hideous-looking female ghost and be scared to death.

"You are a monk, don't be so timid, there have been two tombs, what the hell are you afraid of, the big deal is to die, and it's not that you haven't died......" he said to himself in his heart.

After giving himself some mental construction, he finally turned his head slowly and turned back, and in the meantime, the hands had been wrapped around his waist, but nothing happened again.

At this moment, a light lit up in the sky.

When Zhang Xiyun decided to turn back, the sun rose, and there was even a rooster crowing in the city.

The hands around his waist turned into wisps of green smoke and dispersed.

When Zhang Xiyun turned around completely, he opened his eyes and saw that there was no one behind him, not even the flame in the city.

And the Quartet who came to capture him last night, except for the fleeing Xuanyi walking and the leader wearing the hat, I am afraid that they were also buried in the night with the flames.

Zhang Xiyun, who came back, was sweating profusely, experiencing a big ups and downs between life and death, panting heavily.

"What the hell was last night...... What is it......" he muttered to himself.

"An Luping's old fox asked me to come to Chishan City, did you want me to come to die?" As if he had picked up a life by luck, Zhang Xiyun finally couldn't help but scold, and scolded a few foul words to greet An Luping and his relatives.

And he finally lost his physical strength, smashed into the courtyard, and only after a long time did he stand up, looking at his bloody and sweaty clothes, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and laugh at himself.

"It's a hard battle at every turn, where can I get so much money to buy clothes......"

He tore off the human skin mask he was wearing, and said in his heart that since he had been seen last night, it was better to restore his original appearance, and maybe he would not be recognized.

"The families in the city seem to be staring at me, and Dong Guanzheng doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, where should I go?"

He looked at the big house in the courtyard again, and hesitated in his heart whether he should return to the Imperial Capital City immediately and inform Yan Jiujun of the affairs in Chishan City.

"Everything that happened last night seems to be an accident, even the Quartet didn't think of it, but they had already laid an ambush, indicating that before I came, they already knew that the Qin Heavenly Supervisor would send a new official to Chishan City, and the disappearance of the Winter Officer was definitely not because of an accident like last night, but because of their ......"

"Two people fled last night, and I'm afraid it won't be long before someone comes back to this courtyard, and I must leave as soon as possible. ”

Zhang Xiyun shook his head, this Chishan City really has too many secrets that no one knows.

"It seems that before leaving, I still have to go into the house to find out if the winter official has left any clues. ”

He had to drag his tired body towards the house in the courtyard. (To be continued.) )
