Chapter 0002: A Drop of Blood, A Piece of Gold

Niu Yuanping didn't dare to take the two pennies on the bridge.

He hurried back to the inn.

Hurriedly pushed the door open and entered.

The door was closed in a hurry, and Zhao Fatzi, who was sleeping on the floor, woke up.

He asked, "Why are you going?" ”

"There are ghosts!" While shouting, Niu Yuanping ran up the stairs in a panic.

Zhao Fatzi looked at his back, wrinkled a pair of fat eyebrows, and muttered, "What kind of nerves?" ……”

He muttered, turned his head and fell asleep again.

Niu Yuanping climbed into the attic and escaped into the bed.

At this time, the quilt was already cold, and I was in a cold sweat just now, and I was shivering from the cold.

Then he couldn't sleep again.

The next day, Niu Yuanping immediately told his boss about it.

The boss's surname is Li Mingde, and he is an old man who likes to smoke hookahs.

Li De listened to Niu Yuan's statement flatly, frowned, took a few puffs of cigarette pouches, and said, "This matter is not simple! You have to report to the yamen, and let the yamen invite the demon slayer to come and take a look! ”

It's been half a year since he traveled here, and Niu Yuanping has heard the most about demon slayers.

Located in the Demon Division of Kyoto Prefecture in Dayan Kingdom, it specializes in cultivating demon slayers, who can kill demons and protect civilians.

In the territory of Dayan Kingdom, in every city, there will be two or three demon slayers, if someone reports to the yamen that there are ghosts and demons, they can contact the demon slayer to deal with it.

"Yuan Ping, you go to the yamen of Zhubi Town and report this matter! By the way, he asked the old Liu Tou in the yamen to get back the money he owed for the meal last time. ”

"Huh?! ……”

Niu Yuanping was a little helpless.

Okay!

I've caused myself a chore......

If I knew this, I wouldn't have this mouth!

There is no way, the boss has ordered, and he is a little buddy shopkeeper, and he can only listen to the order.

I still expect people to pay for food.

……

Pig's Nose Town is on the north side of Pig's Nose Mountain, and Huangshizhuang is on the south side of Pig Nose Mountain.

If you want to go to the yamen of Pignose Town, you have to go over Pignose Mountain.

The reason why Pig's Nose Mountain is called Pig's Nose Mountain is because the road to and from this mountain is two cave corridors, and these two cave corridors form a pattern like a pig's head with the mountain behind.

Taking advantage of the early weather, Niu Yuanping hurried into the mountain.

At first, the weather was relatively clear, but who knows, after walking for about an hour, fog began to rise in the mountains.

The fog grew so thick that it was hard to see beyond two meters.

"It's really a time to go out and forget to look at the yellow calendar! Bad luck. ”

Niu Yuanping, who was standing in the mist, frowned.

"I had to go back."

Follow the route of memory, touch the misty mountain road and turn back in the direction of Huangshizhuang.

I don't know how long I walked.

Niu Yuanping suddenly realized that something was not quite right.

He's lost!

By this time, the sun had already set.

The mountains are already gloomy, and with the sun going down, it's really a bit panicked to be alone on the mountain.

Niu Yuanping's face was a little ugly, after what happened to the hell, he didn't want to walk here at night.

It's just strange, I got lost and delayed too much time before, so I can only bite the bullet and find my way quickly.

It's just a pity that it gets dark too quickly.

Looking at the swarthy mountain col, Niu Yuanping couldn't help but panic.

The more panicked I became, the more I couldn't find my way.

Soon, it was completely dark.

But fortunately, the fog had dispersed, and there was still a little moonlight, and Niu Yuanping used the moonlight to walk among the wild grasses and trees.

He couldn't go out all the time, and he was so anxious that his forehead was a little sweaty.

In this way, I wandered around the forest for more than an hour, but still did not find a way out of the mountain.

Niu Yuanping had no choice but to stop and calm himself.

In the shadow of the moon, he saw a rocky depression under a grassy slope.

There was not a single grass growing within a radius of five feet.

The reason why he cares so much about that place is because Niu Yuanping noticed that he had passed by here several times.

"Haven't I been going around in circles here?"

Niu Yuanping's eyes flashed slightly.

After some thought, he immediately turned around and ran in the opposite direction of the rocky hollow.

Regardless of being scratched by the thorns of the thorn tree, and the soles of his feet were bumpy, Niu Yuanping ran in the forest.

However, after two pillars of incense, when he was out of breath, he stopped.

What appeared in front of me was still the rocky depression under the grassy slope!

Sure enough, it's going round and round!

"Could it be that you have encountered a ghost hitting the wall?"

Niu Yuanping stared at the hollow ground and swallowed and foamed.

Then he gritted his teeth, mustered up his courage, and walked towards the rocky hollow.

When I got closer, I found that in the center of the pile of rocks, there was a larger stone, and on this stone, there were seedlings growing on it.

There is one of them within five zhang, so it is particularly conspicuous at this time.

Niu Yuanping was curious, so he approached to see.

When I looked at it, I found that it was actually a ginseng!

I've heard before that ginseng is spiritual.

If it is really a ghost hitting the wall, then this ginseng is probably not simple.

I can't get out all the time, it's probably a ghost!

So Niu Yuanping plucked up his courage and stood still.

Facing the ginseng on the big stone, he said loudly, "This elf in the mountain, please forgive the kid for being ignorant and accidentally intruding into your territory!" Raise your hand and let me go out of the mountain! ”

When he said this, Niu Yuanping kept staring at the ginseng, and he was already sure that there was something wrong with that thing.

Really.

Not long after the words fell, an old voice came from the ginseng, "Do you need gold?" ”

It's not easy!

Niu Yuanping was startled, and instinctively wanted to run away.

Think of it right away.

If you really fall into the trap of this trick, you won't be able to run!

His back was already soaked in cold sweat.

Resisting the urge to run, he saluted it, "Boy...... Nothing...... Just want to ...... I just want to leave Bidi, please raise your noble hand! ”

The ginseng did not pick up the stubble, and shook its branches to himself, and held up a golden thing with his roots.

"This is gold, and I have a lot of gold to give to you." After saying that, it threw the gold at Niu Yuanping, and the gold rolled to his feet and stopped.

Niu Yuanping swallowed and spat and looked at the ground.

Be bold, bend down and pick it up in your hand to look at it carefully.

But soon, he looked confused.

"This is gold?"

In the face of the question, Ginseng did not respond, but still said to himself, "Exchange a drop of your blood for a piece of gold for me."

Niu Yuanping was taken aback.

It was the first time he had seen ginseng that needed human blood!

Niu Yuanping was about to cry at this time.

"What the fuck did this go through! Let Lao Tzu always bump into the hell! ”

But it's useless to cry, you have to find a way to get through this in front of you!

After a little thought, he had also heard many stories of Zhiwei in his previous life.

There is a story of a yellow skin begging for a seal, which is quite similar to this one.

If you meet a yellow skin begging for a seal on a full moon night, and the yellow skin asks you whether he is like a human or a god, and you want to say that he is like a human, his practice in this life is wasted, and he can only stand and walk in the future, if you want to say that he is like a god, he will immediately become an immortal, and in the future, he will repay you for his kindness.

"Maybe this ginseng wants to lend me a drop of blood to become an immortal or something, so just follow its meaning!"

Staring at the ginseng, Niu Yuanping said tremblingly, "Boy...... I don't want gold, but if you need blood, I don't mind giving me a few drops for free, just let me go when the elves have blood. ”

With that, he put the gold in his hand back to the ground, and then approached the ginseng with courage.

I didn't care if it hurt anymore, so I opened my mouth and bit one of my thumbs and dripped blood in front of the ginseng.

The blood seeped into the crack in the stone and disappeared.

The next moment, Niu Yuanping was surprised to find that the ginseng was a whole circle bigger than Fang Cai!

"It turns out that it is really sucking human blood and growing!"

At this time, he absorbed a drop of blood ginseng, and used a branch to hold out a piece of golden stuff and handed it to Niu Yuanping.

Again, that's the same sentence.

"Exchange a drop of your blood for a piece of gold."
