Mountain ghosts, ghosts of the mountains.

In the Great Yan Kingdom, the mountain ghost is not the beautiful mountain god who "rides the red leopard and follows the civet", but refers to all the evil in the mountains, and sometimes they do not distinguish their shapes, so they are collectively referred to as mountain ghosts.

"Mountain ghosts?!"

Tang Zixiong's face was ugly, and he asked sharply: "Who did you hear say that it was a mountain ghost, isn't it someone pretending to be a ghost!" ”

He was in a very bad mood, there had just been an accident in Shiwa Village, and finally people's hearts were gradually stabilized, if rumors spread, the City God Temple in front of him would be able to make him lose a lot of blood.

The young man gritted his teeth: "Master Tang, those who came back said that when they passed through the mountain road, there was a sudden wind blowing, and rocks fell, smashing and injuring many people, and they couldn't see anything clearly." ”

Throwing rocks at people...

Wang Xuan's heart moved, remembered the record in "Dayan Sou Shan Tu", turned his head and said: "Liu Shun, go back to the mansion to get my weapon, and meet at the south gate." ”

"Yes, sir!"

Liu Shun didn't say a word, turned around and ran towards the mansion.

Wang Xuan looked at the puppy in his arms, and after a little hesitation, he strode towards the city gate, his body straight in the heavy snow.

"Lord Wang, you..."

Tang Zixiong in the back opened his mouth, and he was speechless for a while.

To tell the truth, he was clear about Li County's thoughts about Wang Xuan's momentum, and secretly laughed at it, and even more sneered at the changes in the military government.

A few days ago, he helped Wang Xuan with his errands, which seemed respectful, but in fact he was all coping, or he would not have brought someone to the door to trade without verification.

But today, Wang Xuan has made a big difference in him.

The young man next to him smiled: "Here it is again, this Captain Wang seems to be really famous..."

"Shut up!" Tang Zixiong snorted coldly: "Quick, go and lead a fast horse." ”

……

When Wang Xuan came to the city gate, the county lieutenant Jin Hu had already arrived with the officials.

There is an open space near the city gate, and there is a wooden frame erected on one side, which is used to post county government documents or reward notices on weekdays, and the goods of the caravans entering the city are also distributed here.

The official roads in Dayan are often cleaned by the Jing Demon Division, which is quite safe, but the mountain roads and wild roads are inevitably not taken care of, so there are often caravans hired to escort them together.

Nowadays, the neighing and wailing of mules and horses is noisy.

Several wagons were almost falling apart, and they were all pulled by the wounded, and even a few mules and horses were kneeling on the ground with snorts, and the snow was spotted with red spots.

The officials instructed the strong men to carry the wounded, and Liu Cheng, the head catcher, asked them one by one.

Soon, Liu Chengcheng turned around and came over, bent down and clenched his fists at Wang Xuan and Jin Hu: "Hui two adults, my subordinates have checked, all of them are traumatized, according to them, the black wind was howling at that time, and only one person saw a white shadow on the mountain. ”

County Lieutenant Jin Hu frowned: "A white shadow... can not only show up in the daytime, but also raise the yin wind, isn't there evil cultivation that harms people? ”

Wang Xuan shook his head slightly: "Everything always has a source, and evil cultivation harms people is nothing more than greedy for flesh and blood soul cultivation, how can you allow the caravan to escape?" ”

"What does Lord Wang mean..."

"Dayan Sou Shan Tu" records that there were people in Ezhou who complained about the corpses into essence, and they made trouble in the mountains.

"Corpse elf?!"

County Lieutenant Jin Hu and Liu Cheng took a breath of cold air at the same time.

Although corpses and zombies are both corpses, they are completely different.

Zombies are made of yin qi, although they are invulnerable, they need years to be nurtured, and the weaker people can dig them out and burn them by themselves.

The corpse spirit is completely different, burying deep underground through resentment to absorb the heavenly essence and earth, and as soon as it is born, it can give birth to trickery, and the body is flexible, and there are various classifications, which are extremely difficult.

County Lieutenant Jin Hu immediately broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead: "It's over, Daoist Li Shouxin went to the mountains near Shiwa Village to check the leylines, but he hasn't returned yet..."

"Your weapon, my lord!"

At this moment, Liu Shun and Zhang Heng just arrived, and they were already wearing armor and swords. One was carrying a rotten silver spear, and the other was holding a bow and arrows.

Wang Xuan nodded, first put the bow behind his back, then hung the quiver on his waist, and the rotten silver spear rotated on his shoulder, and after thinking for a while, he handed the little black dog in his arms to Liu Cheng, "Trouble Liu Zhutou and send it back to the military mansion." ”

The county lieutenant Jin Hu saw that Wang Xuan's driving was in a hurry: "Lord Wang, don't be impulsive, it's better to wait for Daochang Li to come back, or report to the Jing Demon Division......"

"It's too late."

Wang Xuan shook his head and said: "Nangu Road is the only way to go to Fucheng, if you want to ask for help, you have to pass through, if that corpse spirit hides in the mountains and forests, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles." ”

"This ......," Jin Hu was speechless for a moment.

He knew that what Wang Xuan said was right, the corpse spirit fled into the vast mountains and forests, even if the Jing Demon Division came, it would be difficult to find, if he came out to harass him from time to time, who else would dare to walk on the mountain road in Yong'an County.

Wang Xuan looked at the arrows engraved with grooved runes in the quiver, "Don't worry, this official knows it." ”

After that, he looked at the more and more people gathered around him, and said with a smile: "Besides, if this official hides, I'm afraid that this tiger captain will become a straw bag captain again." ”

County Lieutenant Jin Hu's eyes became solemn, "Okay, I'll gather good hands and go together." ”

Wang Xuan nodded slightly, "It's okay, maybe there are still injured people there." ”

At this moment, Tang Zixiong hurriedly walked over with a snowflake black zebra, "Lord Wang, this horse has very good foot strength." ”

"Just in time!"

Wang Xuan was also not polite, turned over and jumped on horseback: "Liu Shun Zhang Heng, I will take the first step, you follow the county lieutenant Jin, remember, if I am not here, you must not enter the mountains and forests!" ”

With that, he twisted the reins, picked up his gun and rode out.

One man and one horse quickly disappeared into the snow...

County Lieutenant Jin Hu gritted his teeth: "Liu Cheng, gather people, let's go." ”

Looking at the busy officials, Tang Zixiong's subordinates said in a low voice: "Okay, I see that these officials are not good people on weekdays, but today they show some chivalry." ”

Tang Zixiong glanced at his subordinates lightly: "What knowledge can you have in our remote place in Yong'an, the old man told you that although there are many intrigues in the rivers and lakes, there are also heroes." ”

"They're not from the rivers and lakes..."

"Hey... The court and the rivers and lakes, when will they be separated? ”

"Master Tang, the rivers and lakes... What is it? ”

"The rivers and lakes... By the time you know, you'll be old..."

……

The snow was falling, and the wilderness was white.

"Drive!"

Wang Xuan galloped wildly with a gun, facing the wind and snow, and the blood in his chest boiled.

The predecessor was poor since childhood, and equestrianism was only learned in Fucheng, but after coming to Yong'an, he was poor and destitute, and he almost forgot that the dragon gun is a horse spear technique.

Now riding the horse and galloping wildly, the silver spear in his hand instinctively stabbed up and down, and the evil qi infected the horse under him, causing blood to appear in his eyes, his hooves were like the wind, and large snowflakes were splashed behind him.

Half an hour later, the vast South Mountain was close in front of us.

I saw a valley road winding and rugged, with steep mountains on both sides and dense pine trees, white and green in the snow, and the breath was vast and vast.

The location of each county town in Dayan is exquisite, and all of them are the spiritual acupuncture of the earth qi, or by the mountains and rivers, or by the plains, and the feng shui is excellent.

For example, this Yong'an County, although it is located between the basins, surrounded by vast mountains, is relatively closed, but it has been thousands of years old, and several wars have been avoided.

And the valley avenue is the only road leading to the official road of Dayan and Zhou.

After riding the horse into the canyon mountain road, Wang Xuan also quickly calmed down.

As the evil qi subsided, the horse under him regained consciousness and snorted hot air from his nostrils, obviously tired.

Wang Xuan touched the horse's neck to appease, and shook his head slightly: "It seems that ordinary horses are really not good, and we must find a good military horse in the future." ”

Then, while driving the horse slowly, observe the mountains on both sides.

Although the stone corpse spirit has been recorded several times in the "Great Yan Searching Mountain Map", which is consistent with all aspects of this attack, he has never seen it after all, and he is extremely vigilant in his heart.

From time to time, scattered cargo boxes and blood stains can be found along the way, some of which have long been cracked, revealing the cloth and farm tools and various colors of iron inside.

The annual City God Temple Fair is not only an opportunity for merchants to buy and sell, but also a time for the people of Yongan to work hard for a year and buy New Year's goods.

If it is not solved as soon as possible, I am afraid that no business will dare to come again.

At this moment, a corpse appeared in front of him, covered in bruises, his face distorted in horror, disemboweled, and the ground was frozen into ice slag with blood.

Wang Xuan's face also became gloomy.

Stone Corpse Spirit... It's not going to take people's internal organs...
