Chapter 15: The Caravan

Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men.

What's more, there are many people who can't survive and are willing to take risks.

When Li Jiu'an arrived at the camp, it was still early, and there were only three or four people in it, except for the guards of the caravan itself.

As Chen Yongchang continued to improve his reward, someone was finally willing to block his own life.

Either die in the belly of the demon, or get rich in one day.

When we finally set off, the number of people finally exceeded 100.

For the first two days, everyone was terrified, for fear of encountering youkai, and with the safety of the road, they relaxed a little.

Li Jiu'an has been riding his little green donkey at the end of the team during the day, and there is only one and a half children by his side to accompany him.

"Dao Chief, Dao Chief, are all the stories you are telling true?"

This kid's name is Chen Ziwu, and he is the nephew of Chen Yongchang, who is smart and alert.

In the past two days, he has been pestering Li Jiu'an, asking him about all kinds of anecdotes.

Although Li Jiuan is just a fake Taoist, he has read a lot of books, and he is also bored along the way, so he talked about the journey to the west, from the gods to the wilderness, and when he talked about the rise, he also performed a few magic tricks, and he was stunned for a moment, and he almost knelt down to apprentice.

"Of course it's true, didn't I tell you about Journey to the West before, once Sun Wukong went to borrow the banana fan, do you remember?"

"Remember, that fan is so powerful, one fan can have a lot of wind."

"That fan is on Poor Dao."

Li Jiuan had a mysterious expression on his face, and whispered to the kid next to him.

"Cut, I don't believe it, you're all lying to children."

Chen Ziwu looked disdainful.

"But Sun Wukong should be real."

When talking about Sun Wukong, Chen Ziwu's little face was full of longing.

Li Jiuan didn't feel embarrassed at all when the child was exposed, let out a burst of laughter, and pointed to a person about thirty or forty steps in front of him.

"Look at the man's hat in front of you."

Then with a gentle wave of the palm.

But when he saw a light wind rising on the flat ground, he blew off the man's hat impartially, revealing a bare head.

Chen Ziwu looked surprised, covered his mouth with his hand and looked at Li Jiu'an.

"Ba... Plantain fan?"

"Guess? Hahaha. ”

After Li Jiuan finished speaking, he slapped the donkey's back, leaving only Chen Ziwu with a string of laughter.

......

A bright moon hangs high, illuminating the camp.

A circle of people sat around the campfire.

The flickering light of the fire was slightly eerie on everyone's faces.

At the same time, a deep voice came from within.

“... Wang Dafu's shoulder was patted, he turned his head, took the candle from Li Gou'er's hand, he smiled at Li Gou'er, and walked to the starting point, which is the No. 1 corner. ”

"It stands to reason that four people stand in the four corners of the house to pass candles, and Wang Dafu, as the last one, should go to a corner where there is no one."

However, as he walked into the corner, he found a figure in a gray robe standing with his back to him.

Wang Dafu thought that Zhou Lai was joking with him, and deliberately walked back to wait for him.

She called out to him with a pretended ease and reached out and patted the man on the shoulder.

The man turned his head slowly, and in the light of the candlelight, he saw a blurred face of blue and black grinning at him.

Suddenly, a scream came from the crowd of onlookers, interrupting the story.

"You, you Taoist priest, how can there be a ghost in this world, don't be scary."

Li Jiuan looked for a sound, but he was a white-faced scholar, with a frightened look on his face with red lips and white teeth.

Immediately replied angrily.

"There's a ghost sitting next to you."

Halfway through the words, the tone was still gloomy.

"Look, it's about to touch your neck."

As soon as this remark came out, although everyone knew that it was a joke, they couldn't stand the fact that they had just finished listening to the story, and when they were scared in their hearts, they made a fuss for a while, and all kinds of vulgar words came and went.

"Stinky Daoist."

"Nonsense."

"What the hell is there?"

"Don't touch me, stay away from me."

After a while, the campfire was deserted.

The Taoist priest didn't expect it to be like this, shook his head and smiled, but began to recite the mantra of death.

"The edict of the Taishang, the lonely soul of Chaoyou, the ghost of everything, the four lives are gracious... Rescue and others, and rush to overlive. ”

And as Daoist Li recited the mantra of death, a figure slowly appeared next to the place where the white-faced scholar was sitting.

The figure was transparent at first, and shattered, covered in signs of being bitten.

As time passed, the figure gradually became clearer and returned to its original appearance.

"Thank you, Chief."

The figure clenched his fists and flicked.

Li Jiuan nodded slightly, looking at this person's appearance, he understood in his heart that this person should be the person who was killed by the monster a few days ago.

"Be careful, there is someone behind the monster, yes..."

There is a reincarnation in the heavenly way, and the ghost cannot survive for too long after being exceeded, and this figure will turn into starlight and dissipate before he finishes speaking.

Manned? Deliberately sending youkai to intercept and kill the caravan?

Li Jiuan frowned and thought deeply, and his heart was angry, there is indeed no shortage of damned people in this world at any time.

"Dao Chief, Dao Chief."

Suddenly, a small head poked out from the other side of the bonfire, and it was the servant girl of the white-faced scholar.

"Dao Chief, is there really a ghost in this world?"

Li Jiuan looked behind the maidservant, and sure enough, the white-faced scholar followed behind, and when he saw the Taoist chief's gaze, he hurriedly turned his head.

Li Jiu'an's mind flowed, and he had a heart of teasing.

Bow your head and make a weird smile, even more terrifying in the light of the beating fire.

At the same time, a low, hoarse voice is heard.

"I am."

The scholar let out another exclamation, dispelling the depression in Li Jiu's peace of mind.

Well, something is wrong.

How can I be scary with the love of the old Taoist?

It feels good, though.

Of course, scary people naturally come with consequences.

The consequence was that the next day, the scholar went around telling people that he was a ghost, which made everyone suspicious and added a little trouble to the team.

......

"Stinky Daoist, see if you dare to scare me."

The white-faced scholar rode a jujube red horse and followed Li Jiu'an and looked at him proudly.

"Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, it's the wrong way of poverty."

Li Jiu'an's hearty apology was indeed his own trickery, and he couldn't scare people, and that apology was nothing.

"My name is Liu Fei, this is my maid Xiaoqing, what do you call the Taoist?"

"Poor Dao's surname is Li, just call me Daoist Li."

Liu Fei rode on the horse, looking at the surrounding environment, quite a kind of leisure and leisure when he came out for an outing.

"Stinky Daoist, where are you going?"

Well, in vain.

Li Jiuan silently complained in his heart.

"Point Cangshan."

"Point Cangshan? I know that. ”

Liu Fei was suddenly interested.

"That's the hometown of the demon breaker Xu Mo." Halfway through his words, Liu Fei's expression darkened: "It's a pity that characters like Xu Xianfeng have sacrificed their lives for the country and died on the battlefield, and they didn't even snatch out the corpse capital." ”

Xu Mo?

Hearing this name, Li Jiuan remembered the man he met when he was removing zombies before.

I guess it's the same name.

"What are you doing there, take me one?"

After Liu Fei escaped from home, although he was a fish into the sea, and everyone in the world could go, he had no direction for a while, and he felt that this Taoist priest was quite interesting, so he thought about following.

And although this Taoist priest loves to be scary, but in fact, she understands in her heart that there are demons and ghosts in this world, she was protected at home before and did not meet it, and it is not necessary to go out, and it seems safer to follow this Taoist priest.

Li Jiuan immediately refused when he heard this, joking, he wasn't going to play, it was okay to bring a drag oil bottle.

"Poor Dao suddenly didn't want to go."
