As soon as the dark clouds of Egret Fei and Yang Jiumei dispersed, Yang Kejian's sandstorm came again.

Suoba frowned and said, "It's not good to sleep too much, and it's easy to get demented." ”

After saying that, Suo Ba turned around and walked away, and just a few steps away, an old man came in front of him, and this old man was the bookkeeper of the "Ruyi Inn".

The bookkeeper wore a pair of glasses and looked like an old pedant.

"Mr. Bookkeeper, please stay, I'll ask you about something."

Mr. Bookkeeper is worthy of being a knowledgeable person, with a smile on his face and a cute look.

"Ask whatever you want! I don't dare to say more, I still know a little bit about big and small things in a radius of ten miles and eight towns. ”

Suo Ba nodded, "I'll ask you about the ...... of Xuanming Mountain."

"You ask Xuanming Mountain? This ......"

Mr. Ledger's mouth seemed to have something unspeakable, and "this ......" didn't say anything for a long time.

"What's wrong? Is there anything you can't say? ”

The bookkeeper shook his head, and he looked around again, and saw that there was no one around.

"You come with me."

After saying that, the bookkeeper walked forward, and Suo Ba thought to himself, what is wrong with this old man? It's mysterious, as if you've done something unseemly.

The bookkeeper led Suoba to his room, and when he returned the door, he closed the door tightly, beckoned Suoba to sit down, and poured another bowl of tea.

The corners of the bookkeeper's mouth twitched twice, and he asked, "Why did you inquire about Xuanming Mountain?" ”

"I've always heard of such a mountain, and I want to go around."

It was impossible for Soba to tell the truth to outsiders, so he lied.

This lie is very apt, it is normal for an outsider to drive to a new place and see the mountains and rivers.

The bookkeeper nodded, and he poured himself another bowl of tea, and took a sip.

"It's not unusual for you to be a foreigner and don't know, so don't go to Xuanming Mountain! There's not much to see, especially in winter, when it's snowy everywhere and there's no scenery to speak of. ”

"Mr. Bookkeeper, you seem to have something to say, is there something wrong with that Xuanming Mountain?"

The bookkeeper's face was embarrassed, and the hand holding the tea bowl trembled, and the water in the tea bowl overflowed, and he wiped the water on the table with his old hand.

The flesh on his face gathered together, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

Nervous? And it's very stressful.

When it comes to Xuanming Mountain, why is Mr. Xuanming Mountain so nervous? Suo Ba drew a big question mark in his heart.

The more Mr. Bookkeeper didn't say anything, the more curious Suo Ba became, and Xuanming Mountain was related to the letterhead last night.

"Tell me, Mr. Bookkeeper! Your mouth goes out, my ears go in, and when you go out of this room, the story is over. ”

The bookkeeper gently placed the bowl on the table, sighed, and grinded his teeth.

"Alright! I'll tell you, that Xuanming Mountain is also called Black Wind Ridge, out of my inn, turn two corners to the northeast. The mountain is not high, but there are a lot of strange things, which is in response to that sentence, the mountain is not high, there is a fairy name, and there is a ...... on the Xuanming Mountain."

As soon as he said this, a black thing flew in from outside the window and smashed directly on the table, smashing the tea bowl on the table to pieces.

Suo Ba looked down and saw that it was a black brick, he picked up the black brick and ran out.

When Soba came to the courtyard, he didn't even see a figure, he turned around and went back to the bookkeeper's room.

The bookkeeper leaned back in his chair, his head tilted back, his eyes closed, and his lips slightly open, as if he were asleep.

Suo Ba came to Mr. Bookkeeper's side and called softly, "Mr. Bookkeeper's." ”

Mr. Bookkeeper still kept sleeping, how could a person sleep so quickly and so deeply.

Soba knew something was wrong, and he stretched out two fingers and put them under the nostrils of the bookkeeper.

Oh no, the old man has no breath and his soul is gone, which means that the person is dead.

Suoba hurriedly found the old shopkeeper of the inn, and the old shopkeeper immediately sent someone to find the family of the bookkeeper.

Because the old man died strangely, the family reported to the official.

The police department sent a forensic doctor to conduct an autopsy, but no injuries were found on the body.

No toxic substances were found in the body, so the police determined that Mr. Bookkeeper had died of natural causes.

In today's medical terms, it may be an acute illness such as a myocardial infarction or cerebral infarction that killed him.

Soba asked, "What's the matter with that brick?" ”

The police officer said: "It may be that some child was naughty and threw it in, and the bookkeeper was frightened and had a heart attack, which makes sense." ”

The people at the police station finished the form, and the case was closed in a few short sentences.

Suo Ba was suspicious, he didn't think that this matter was so simple, a brick scared people to death, was there such an evil thing?

As soon as Mr. Bookkeeper was about to tell about Xuanming Mountain, he flew into a brick, and the working lady who turned around died for no reason.

Hum! Bricks thrown by children? Is there such a skilled child?

Mr. Bookkeeper must have been killed, this is clearly a conspiracy, and it is a shocking conspiracy, and it is obvious that this is what he is asking for.

Things have developed to this point, and the more this happens, the more exciting Suo Bafei must go to Xuanming Mountain.

Even if he didn't have the magic pen he wanted, there might be some shady secrets hidden there.

"Starling, you said Mr. Bookkeeper killed someone? There was no injury at all, and you said that it was not poisoned, how did that hurt? ”

"What you asked is also what I want to know, finding the person who killed him will naturally reveal this mystery, and I will go to Xuanming Mountain tonight."

"Are you all going?"

"No, it's just you and me."

Xiao Dunzi sat up from the bed with a bone, and his two big eyes were as wide as buns.

"Just the two of us?"

"Why are you scared? You must be afraid that I will go by myself. ”

Xiao Dunzi rubbed his hands, pouted and said, "What am I afraid of?" I mean, why don't you call Yang Kejian and Egret Fei? There is a lot of power in numbers! ”

"I'm afraid that Yang Kejian will do bad things, as for the egret flying...... Cough! Don't mention it. ”

Suo Bazhen didn't want to mention the heartwarming thing in the morning, it was very awkward to think about it.

It's a difficult day, and the more you look forward to it, the later it feels like the night will fall.

In fact, the time of sunrise and sunset in the same season is about the same, which is caused by the urgency of the mood.

It was even after dark, and Suo Ba and Xiao Dunzi Bird slipped out of the door silently.

It was a dark and windy night, and although there was snow on the ground, it was still not very far.

Suo Ba did as the bookkeeper said, and walked northeast after leaving the inn.

Along the way, I turned around when I saw a bend, and sure enough, after a total of two turns, a mountain appeared.

The mountain is not high, and it is dark.

"Why isn't there snow on this mountain?"

Xiao Dunzi's words reminded Suo Ba, there were white flowers everywhere, only Xuanming Mountain was terrifyingly black.

"No wonder Mr. Bookkeeper said that Xuanming Mountain is also called Black Wind Ridge, and the original name comes from this! It's better without snow and it's easier to climb mountains. ”

The two of them found a relatively gentle slope and began to climb the mountain.

The further up the hill became, the stronger the wind became, and the wind was howling like a wolf.

I know that the wind is doing evil, and those who don't know think that there are wild beasts!

Xiao Dunzi's legs and stomachs turned straight, and the torch in his hand was dangling.

"Can you not shake your hands, it will dazzle my eyes."

"Starling, I didn't shake it, it was blown by the wind."

As soon as the wind is spoken, the wind blows even harder, and the "poof" actually blows out the torch, and the wind that can blow the torch out is really rare.

"Black Wind Ridge is really not ordinary." Suo Ba said word by word.

"Will there be a ghost in the starling?"

"Where do ghosts come from, they are all used by adults to scare children, even if there are ghosts, they are afraid of people, and little ghosts are afraid of ruthless people, haven't you heard of this?"

Xiao Dunzi shook his head and said in a trembling voice: "I really haven't heard this. ”

"Don't always look back to your head, you have two yang fires on your two shoulders, as soon as you turn around, the yang fire will be blown weak by your breath, if you turn your head a few more times, the yang fire may be extinguished, then I'm afraid there will really be ghosts on your body."

"Didn't you say there are no ghosts?" Xiao Dunzi almost cried.

"I don't know if it's not, when I say this, when you hear it, don't take anything too seriously, otherwise you will only find your own hardship."

After a while, the two of them climbed to the top of the mountain, and the little pier sat on the ground and gasped.

There are a few straight poplars and willows scattered on the mountain, and nothing else is to be found except for the trees.

"Then the bookkeeper said, "There is one on this mountain, but what is it?" Maybe it's a house, why is there nothing here? Let's go, look further ahead. ”

Suo Ba's brain jumped, and a trace of bad premonition inexplicably appeared in his heart, which made his heart shake.

With this in mind, he took a step towards the sparse forest.

After walking a long way, a strange building appeared, which was most likely the one that the bookkeeper had said.

The building in front of me occupies a small area, standing tall, as tall as a three- or five-story building.

It's strange because its entire exterior is made of logs, and it's a wooden building.

Wooden houses are not uncommon in mountainous areas, but such wooden buildings are still the only ones in the scorpion baba.

Suopa re-lit the torch and lifted it up, revealing the wooden building in full view of the torch.

All the windows are fake, all sealed with logs.

Walked around the wooden building, the wooden building has only one wooden door, and the wooden door has a copper lock.

Suoba lifted the copper lock, glanced at the keyhole, and put it down.

Suoba took out the key from the cloth bag, easily inserted the key into the lock hole, and with a slight rotation, the copper lock opened.

Suo Ba gently pushed open the wooden door and was about to go inside, but Xiao Dunzi dragged him behind him.

"Do starlings really want to go in?"

"Nonsense, why am I here if I don't go in, let alone a wooden building, even if it's hell, your starling has to break in, this is called a tiger's den if you can't get into the tiger's den." Suo Ba paused and said, "It's still the same sentence, if you are really afraid, you can stay, I will not force you." ”

Xiao Dunzi took the bow off his back.

Courageously said: "I'm afraid I don't know how to write the words, and the treasure carving bow of the dun master is going to be rusty." ”

The little dun walked into the wooden building with two small short legs, and Suo Ba was impressed when he saw this little dun Zi Shi Bei for three days, and he didn't expect him to be arrogant.

But he didn't take two steps, and Xiao Dunzi ran behind Suo Ba again, shrunk back, and kept trembling.

"Starling, you're still in front! I don't have a good look. ”

"Okay, but you have to be careful behind you, watch out for a pair of big black hands that will knock you down."

"Won't it?"

"No, it won't."

If Suo Ba said yes, Xiao Dunzi probably peed his pants again.

It was pitch black everywhere in the wooden building, and it could only be lit by the luminosity of the torches.

The first floor was empty, and the brothers made their way up the wooden staircase to the upper floor.

The wooden ladder doesn't seem to be very strong, and as soon as a person steps on it, it keeps making a "creaking" sound, which makes people feel a tug.
