My first instinct was that the old man must know a lot.

In that case, if I hide that map again, it will seem that I am very insincere.

So, I took out the map, and told Wu from death, how I picked up his bag, and Li Di's disappearance, and briefly told me from beginning to end.

When the old man saw the map, he lost his mind directly.

Looking at him who didn't react for a long time, I couldn't hold back and asked, "Senior, have you ever seen this map?" ”

Hearing me ask, the old man retracted his gaze and sighed faintly: "I've seen it, this map has been with me for many years, but I didn't expect that someone from the Wu family died in this mountain." ”

The old man's voice was soft, as if muttering to himself.

What do you call again?

I was confused, and I wanted to ask clearly, but suddenly I felt that the affairs of the Wu family had nothing to do with me.

The most important thing at the moment was to rescue Li Di, so he changed his words: "Senior, please tell me where the place you said is." ”

However, the old man's next words made me desperate, and he shook his head and said, "I don't know where that place is. ”

I......

I've been talking about it for a long time, why should I be embarrassed by your old man's sentence for me?

I had a black line on my head and a look of disappointment.

The old man looked at me like a bear, and after a deep groan, he slowly opened his mouth.

"All I know is that the place is in the mountains, and as for the exact location, there is nothing."

I was completely speechless, and my mind was a mess.

Finally, the Qilin was calm, and it asked sincerely, "Old man, how do you know that there is such a place in this mountain?" What the hell is that place? If it's convenient for you, I hope you know everything. ”

The old man nodded: "Since you are so persistent, I will tell you everything I know, but you must understand that everything recorded in the form of ghost books is related to the underworld, and it must be evil and evil, you must think twice." ”

"Okay, old man, don't be verbose, there is no place in this world that Uncle Long doesn't dare to go."

This five-clawed golden dragon is vulgar to death, which is very different from its image at this time.

Fortunately, the old man didn't have the same knowledge as this thing, and said, "You are all cultivators, and you should believe what I am going to say next." ”

After speaking, he stared directly at the oil lamp on the desk, his face full of fear.

I was infected by his expression, and my heart became inexplicably nervous.

What he said made me think that what he was about to say must be a little strange.

"It all started 40 years ago." The old man did not stay any longer, and said, "Because of the hard life in the mountains, every year in spring, summer and autumn, I will go up the mountain to pick herbs and sell them in the market in exchange for some daily necessities. ”

"It was also May, and in order to collect a seasonal herb called 'Shenggenzi', I prepared dry food and went into the mountain in advance."

"That day, I picked for a day during the day, and at night I found a sheltered cliff and slept in the open."

"At that time, I had been living in seclusion in this Zhongnan Mountain for ten years. The reason why I chose this place to live in seclusion is because I like the mountains and rivers here, and I like the clear wind and moon here. In the past ten years, I have stayed overnight in the barren mountains countless times, and I have enjoyed the feeling of being a bed on the ground. However, in the middle of the night, I woke up to see a dark sky instead of a sky full of stars and moons. ”

The old man paused, as if he had returned to that night.

"I feel very strange, before going to bed, it is still the moon, how can I wake up like this? Not only did the black reach not see the five fingers, but there was no wind or birdsong around, as if they had suddenly entered a confined space. ”

"I immediately thought that there was some evil at work, so I opened my eyes to heaven. Sure enough, when I opened my eyes, I saw a village between the barren mountains and mountains. There are sparse thatched huts in the village, but they feel extremely dilapidated and deserted......"

"I've been to that place countless times, but I've never encountered anything like it, it's outrageous, it's weird!"

The old man paused again as he spoke, his eyes fixed on the oil lamp, as if he was afraid of falling into darkness again.

I took advantage of his silence to think quickly for a while.

What is going on with the sudden appearance of an old residence in the wilderness?

Could it be that there was a natural disaster there, which caused the village to disappear, and a ghost thought manifested under some opportunity?

I couldn't help but express the doubts in my heart.

Unexpectedly, the old man shook his head: "It's not that simple. ”

He cleared his throat and continued, "That's what I thought at the beginning. How could a cultivator be afraid of ghosts, so I packed my things and went into the village. ”

"There was no one in the village, and there was no sound, and it was gloomy and desolate."

"I walked through it, looked closely, and hoped to deduce the age of the village based on the architectural style. But those dilapidated houses are similar to mine, and I can't tell them out at all. ”

"Those rooms are very messy, there is no layout at all, one east and one west. I walked around for a long time, and the more I turned around, the more confused I became, and suddenly I felt that it was not a village, but a small tribe......"

"I really couldn't meet anyone, so I dared to go into a room."

"I thought that when I pushed the door, I might see a ghost, or a corpse, a dry bone. However, the house was empty, and there was nothing. I went into several rooms in a row, and they were all the same. ”

"At that moment, I suddenly felt a little strange, I felt as if time had frozen, and the whole world was left with me, so depressed that people wanted to escape."

But just as I turned to walk back, there was a sudden strong wind in the village, where there was a sound of needle dropping, and at the same time there was a terrible cry. The voice was like the wailing of countless lonely ghosts in unison, and it was like a cry from hell. ”

"The sound is so penetrating that it seems to penetrate the soil and hit my ears directly, making my heart beat and creepy."

"My first instinct was to run away. Instinctively, I glanced back as I ran along the road I had come...... It was this sight that scared me so much that my legs went limp, and I sat on the ground with my ass......"

When the old man said this, his face showed a palpitating look, as if he was still afraid of the experience many years ago.

I wondered in my heart that this old man lived alone in the mountains, which showed that his courage was not ordinary, and how frightening it must be to scare him like this.

After a pause, the old man gradually settled down, and said, "On the mountain behind me, a huge gate has appeared. The weirdest thing is that there are countless grimaces on that door! To be exact, that door was like a ghost gate formed by the gathering of countless evil spirits. ”

"Ghost Gate ......"
