"Don't scare yourself! What are ghosts afraid of? ”

Chen Ning clenched the horizontal knife in his hand, his eyes sparkled, like a lone wolf at night, "In the afternoon, we have killed all the human skin ghosts, what ghosts are you afraid of?" ”

"Brother Ning has a point."

Although Ma Changsi said this, his hands couldn't help but tremble, "Damn, I don't know what the hell it is this time...... Mother! Brother Ning! Not again! ”

As he spoke, he clearly felt that something was on his shoulder.

Bang Bang Bang –

This time it was very rhythmic, and I patted it lightly several times.

"Something, something slapping me on the back!"

Ma Changsi's fat face was squeezed into a lump, and he was about to cry.

"Don't move!"

Chen Ning suddenly stopped him, frowned and looked behind him, his eyes revealing doubt.

"Brother Ning, what kind of eyes are you? Don't scare me! ”

Ma Changsi looked at Chen Ning's strange eyes and wanted to look back, but he didn't dare.

"Don't be afraid, I found something to shoot us......"

Chen Ning said, stretched out his hand to pick a locust leaf on Ma Changsi's body, and handed it to him, "Look, it's this thing that pats us on the shoulder......"

"Sophora leaves?"

The panic on Ma Changsi's face disappeared suddenly, and he took the acacia leaf suspiciously, "Brother Ning, aren't you joking?" ”

Without waiting for Chen Ning to answer him, he already had the answer.

I saw that in the night wind, a few locust leaves flew in the air.

The dance was completely different from the normal flying of leaves, they followed a certain pattern, seemed to be alive, and swirled around the two of them.

One of them was a particularly large, emerald green locust leaf, rolling back and forth, like a human palm, beckoning to the two brothers.

When people encounter something that they can't touch or can't see, they will naturally be frightened.

But when they realized that this thing had a form, it was no longer so scary.

Ma Changsi was like this, he looked at the locust leaf, completely ignoring Fang Cai's fear, "This leaf can really move, Brother Ning, what does this mean?" ”

"Looking at the way they look, where are they going to take us?"

Chen Ning pointed at the locust leaf with a knife, "Follow and have a look." ”

"It's fine."

Ma Changsi looked at the gloomy dark clouds overhead, put away his horizontal knife, followed the locust leaves, and walked towards the mouth of the West Alley.

Not long after the two brothers left with Huai Ye, they saw a blood-colored light descend from the dark cloud and float towards Sun Xiaolian's home.

"Titicaca—"

There was also a low figure, along the eaves, scurrying from a distance, following the blood-colored light, falling in the Sun family's down-and-out courtyard.

The figure slowly stood up, revealing the hideous muscles on its body.

This guy is like a bullfrog that has been skinned, and there will be blood dripping from the muscles that have lost its skin, leaving a stinking blood stain everywhere it passes.

It's a grudge corpse.

The resentful corpse reached out and grabbed the piece of mutton fat jade, and looked up at the dark clouds, "My lord, the two little catchers who just escaped may have discovered your existence, do they want to kill you?" ”

A dull voice sounded in the dark clouds, "No need, there is something wrong tonight, you don't want to make trouble." Take the fourth pill as soon as possible and hand it over to the old place. ”

His voice, for example, was a little weak when the temple was broken, as if he had also been injured.

"My subordinates understand."

The resentful corpse picked up the mutton fat jade, came to the door, and blew a breath of scarlet mist into the crack of the door.

After a while, the sound of breathing in the room became deeper, and the resentful corpse waved its arms, and the muscles and muscles on its arms fell off, like wriggling flesh maggots, burrowing into the crack in the door and opening the door.

"The Fourth Pill......

The corpse pushed open the door, clicked as it laughed, and slipped into the slumped hut.

……

The Chen Ning brothers moved quickly, and in just a moment, they had already come to the West Alley.

Under the cold moonlight, the old locust tree swayed gently, and the whole body emitted a faint green light, shining brightly.

The locust leaves float under the locust tree, no longer dancing, hanging in the air and stagnating.

"My mother! Brother Ning, look at it! The old locust tree is glowing! ”

Ma Changsi stared blankly at the old locust tree, intending to reach out and touch it.

"Don't move!"

Chen Ning frowned, blocked Ma Changsi with a horizontal knife, and looked at the old locust tree carefully, his eyes were full of caution.

There is a tree that can shine in the middle of the night, and anyone who sees it must be suspicious, if it is timid, I am afraid that it will be frightened and turn around and run.

Only Ma Changsi, a heartless guy, would want to reach out and touch it.

"What's wrong, Brother Ning?"

Ma Changsi scratched the back of his head and muttered, "You don't think that these cases have anything to do with the old locust tree, right?" ”

"It's not impossible."

Chen Jingjing looked at the old locust tree and guessed its intentions.

"Brother Ning, don't be kidding! This old locust tree is the patron saint of our Chenjia Lane, and it has a lot of aura, even if it really becomes a spirit, it is also a good spirit! ”

Ma Changsi was not afraid at all, but said with a smile, and planned to touch the old locust tree.

Hearing him say this, Chen Ning's eyes fell on the big stone in front of the old locust tree.

The stone is very flat, the lower half is embedded in the ground, and there are incense and candles on top of it, and the incense seems to have just burned out.

Speaking of which, this old locust tree has also been around for many years, and in the mouths of the older generation, it was here when Qingxi County was not the county seat.

Just like the long age of the old locust tree, there are also rumors of various miracles along with it.

For example, in that famine era, every household did not have rice to cook, and when people starved to death every day, and when the people were struggling to make a living, some people came to survive under the tree, and dropped a locust leaf, and they could not be hungry for a few days after eating.

A hungry man came to gnaw on the bark, but found that the bark of the old locust tree was as hard as copper and iron, and the knife could not cut it.

For example, if a child has some minor illnesses, chills, malaria, and has no money for treatment, he comes to the old locust tree to ask for a locust leaf, and he can recover the next day after eating it.

It's just that in recent decades, I don't know when, the old locust tree has not been very effective, and there are many fewer people worshipping it.

Nowadays, most children often run to the bottom of the locust tree to pray for blessings, begging for a candy to eat, and maybe one day if they are lucky, they will be able to pick up a locust leaf as sweet as honey.

"Brother Ning, it's right that you said that cat Ah Si is bad and black water, but the old locust tree is different."

Ma Changsi had already placed his hand on the old locust tree, and said with a smile: "Don't forget, when I was seven years old, I begged for two honey leaves from under the locust tree, and gave you one back!" The old locust tree, which often gives children candy, is considered a spirit, can it be broken? ”

"Can't you?"

The caution in Chen Ning's eyes gradually faded, he put away the long knife and stared at the old locust tree thoughtfully.

"!"

As soon as Ma Changsi touched the old locust tree, he suddenly exclaimed and jumped back two steps.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Ning's spirit as soon as he relaxed instantly tensed, and just as he was about to draw his knife, he heard Ma Changsi exclaim: "Brother Ning, the old locust tree can speak!" It's just talking! ”

"Huh? Why didn't I hear that? ”

Chen Ning frowned and looked around.

"The sound is gone again......"

Ma Changsi was stunned, and then reached out again, "You can't touch Lao Huai, so you can hear it, right?" ”

After he put his hand on the trunk of the tree, he shouted in surprise: "Brother Ning, sure enough!" Lao Huai is talking to me! Brother Ning, listen up! He asked me to call you! ”

Chen Ning frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then raised his hand and put it on the old locust tree.

Sure enough, the moment his hand touched the locust tree, he only felt his body tremble slightly, and an old and rich voice sounded in his ears.

"Chen Ning, this immortal has been waiting for you for a long time......"

The voice was extremely mysterious, as if it was a fairy sound.

Ma Changsi shouted excitedly: "Brother Ning, did you hear it?" Huaixian said that I have been waiting for you for a long time! ”

Chen Ning was only slightly surprised, but he was not as excited as Ma Changsi, and said lightly: "I have lived for so long, and it is the first time I have heard someone dare to call themselves immortals." Is your title of immortal a feudal feud from the imperial court? Can there be a tablet and a temple to worship? ”

A few decades ago, not when the current saints were in power, there were many obscene temples in the world, and all kinds of demons dared to call immortals holy, and bewitched the people to build temples for them without authorization, and they were worshiped and eaten incense.

But after the establishment of the Zhenxuan Division, the current sage's decree of "Divine Decree" was handed down, and countless obscene temples were demolished, and wild immortals in the countryside were suppressed.

If the country spirits want to receive incense, they must have the canonization of Daqin.

All kinds of wild temples that could be seen everywhere before have now been overturned, and there are very few spirits who can enter the temple to receive incense, and there are only a handful of people who can be called immortals and saints.

This question stopped Lao Huai, who originally wanted to pretend to be an immortal saint.

Lao Huai was slightly embarrassed: "Although this immortal has no canonization from the Heavenly Dynasty, he has done good deeds for a long time, and he has won the love ......of people."

"That's not it?"

Chen Ning interrupted its boastful words, "According to the laws of my Great Qin Heavenly Dynasty, you claim to be an immortal without authorization, but it is a serious crime!" What's the matter, you're looking for our two brothers to spread the word, and you're going to fight against the court? ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!"

Lao Huai's tone changed instantly, there was no more mystery in the way, and there was a little more humility, "Lord Chen Ning, don't be angry, Xiao Huai summoned the two of you, there is no malice, but you are entrusted by others to protect you thoroughly." ”

"Trusted?"

Chen Ning thought for a moment, "Did Lord Xiang order it?" ”

The old locust tree was silent for a moment before sneering: "Exactly." ”

This conversation made Ma Changsi stupid.

What's that?

Brother Ning is so good?

Just between two sentences, the old locust tree that he thought was a great immortal in his heart was forced to reveal its original form and become a small locust?

"Cow!"

Ma Changsi's face was full of admiration and gave Chen Ning a thumbs up.

"Don't talk nonsense, what is the purpose of you using locust leaves to lure me here? It's not just for those two sentences, is it? ”

Chen Ning ignored Ma Changsi and continued to interrogate.

The old locust tree said: "Lord Chen Ning is really smart, Xiaohuai asked you to come here because there is a big disaster about to happen in Chenjia Lane, so you can avoid that disaster." ”

"Calamity?"

Chen Ning raised his eyebrows, and instantly thought of something, "Sun family, Sun Xiaolian is going to have an accident?" ”

"Exactly."

Lao Huai continued to say lightly: "These days, the county is not very peaceful, and just now an evil spirit has entered Chenjia Lane, and it should be in the Sun family at this time...... The evil spirit was too fierce, and Xiaohuai didn't dare to approach, I don't know what the situation is now. ”

As soon as it finished speaking, a terrible scream suddenly came from the alley, breaking the quiet summer night!

"Oops!"

Chen Ning's brows tightened, and he ran towards Chenjia Lane with a knife.
