Chapter 8: Fighting for the Tiger
When Ji Yuan was still in the fatigue and dizziness caused by sitting up, a voice suddenly came from far and near outside the temple.
"Slinger!! Slinger !!"
The people in the temple suddenly became excited.
"It's Xiaodong!!Xiaodong is back!"
Sure enough, Wang Dong's figure quickly ran into the mountain temple from outside, and was immediately surrounded by Zhang Shilin and others with a nervous face.
"Xiaodong, why are you alone? Lao Jin, are they all right? What about that scholar? Did you hear the roar of the big worm just now?"
Zhang Shilin asked a series of questions, eager to get answers from Wang Dong's mouth.
Wang Dong just looked panting, his face was a little unnatural, he didn't take the water bowl handed by others, glanced at Zhang Shilin and looked away, and eased his breath before starting to answer the question.
"Lao Jin, they are with Mr. Lu, and the matter of digging mountain ginseng is going well, but ......"
"But what? Hey, Xiaodong, you usually don't know what you can say, but now you're struggling!!"
"Don't interrupt!"
Zhang Shilin roared and looked at Wang Dong, whose face was a little pale.
"Xiaodong, you go on. ”
"Well, the mountain king ginseng is on a slope, we just dug out the mountain king ginseng, but we heard a tiger roar in the distance, it was too scary, but Lao Jin, Lu Shusheng and Liu Quan were so frightened, they didn't step on it steadily, and they slid down!"
Hearing Wang Dong, who lowered his head slightly, say this, Zhang Shilin and the others were in a hurry.
"What?
"How are Lao Jin and Liu Quan?" "Are you tall?"
"Xiaodong, you said it!!"
Zhang Shilin was anxious, grabbed Wang Dong's arm and asked him.
This shaking seemed to sober Wang Dong, and he spoke more neatly.
"The slope is not high, not very steep, Lao Jin and they are fine, but their feet are bad, Lao Jin asked me to come back and find two or three people to help, and bring them back together, Li Gui is there to take care of them." ”
"So what are you waiting for, let's go!!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" "Count me in!"
Since they didn't encounter a big insect, everyone was a lot more settled and said they wanted to help.
The same goes for Zhang Shilin.
"This time, I took Xiao Du and Ah Hua and Xiao Dong back to help, and the others stayed in the mountain temple to watch good things. ”
While speaking, Zhang Shilin and a few people on the side had already taken out a few torches and lit them.
Ji Yuan's hands and feet were cold, and a tingling chill went straight to his scalp.
He recognized the young footman's voice, but apart from his voice, Ji Yuan didn't hear his footsteps as he came.
And, when Ji Yuan looked there with his gray eyes, Wang Dong he saw in his blurred vision were two ghosts, one was normal, and the other's neck was weirdly crooked to the side, and he would twitch from time to time.
This scene made Ji Yuan's goosebumps not go away at all.
Zhang Shilin and others on the side were unaware of this.
This is no longer human!
Thinking back to the tiger roar before, Ji Yuan suddenly understood something.
He was naturally scared to death, but when he heard that Zhang Shilin was going to take someone out with this ghost, he couldn't care about anything in a hurry, in addition to not wanting Zhang Shilin to die, he also felt that it would be dangerous if there were only 5 people left in the temple.
Here, Zhang Shilin, they lit the torches and were about to run out in a hurry.
"Let's go, Xiaodong, you lead the way, let's ......"
"Slow !!"
An unfamiliar voice sounded in Leng Buding, startling everyone, nervously looking for prestige, only to find that it was actually the beggar, he didn't know when and sat on the side of the mountain god statue, and was leaning on the statue looking at the direction of the temple gate.
Ji Yuan's voice at this time was different from his physical state, and his words were clear and strong.
"Zhang Shilin, Wang Dong has a problem, you can't follow him!"
In Ji Yuan's eyes, his voice caused Wang Dong to turn his head very stiffly, and the back of Ji Yuan's head was numb.
"That beggar, what nonsense are you talking about, Brother Shilin, let's go quickly, Lao Jin and they are still waiting!!"
"Uh-huh. ”
Believing in his companion or believing in a rotten beggar didn't need to think much about it at all, Zhang Shilin still stepped out of the temple gate with one foot.
"Stop!!!Wang Dong is already dead!!"
This roar immediately made Zhang Shilin and the others stop, and subconsciously looked at Wang Dong, who was standing outside the temple and watching them, the shadows of the night covering their faces.
"Brother Shilin, let's go, Lao Jin, they are waiting for us, don't listen to this rotten beggar's nonsense, am I not good?"
Wang Dong took a step closer, and the light of the torch illuminated half of his face, and he saw the smile that was trying to grin under his pale complexion......
It's discordant, it's wrong!!
Every foot trader felt a chill running up, and a few people who wanted to go out subconsciously retracted their feet.
Zhang Shilin swallowed his saliva, looked at Wang Dong and then at the beggar.
"Xiaodong, you, are you really okay?"
But before Wang Dong could speak, Ji Yuan, who was sitting in the temple, immediately said coldly.
"For the tiger, for the tiger, Wang Dong is already a ghost, just like the previous Lu scholar, he is ready to lure you to the tiger and eat you!
"Ghost!!"
Zhang Shilin and the others were so frightened that they took several steps back, thinking back to the previous tiger roar, and some of the things that were wrong after Wang Dong came back, the foot merchants had numb scalps.
"Brother Shiling, don't believe him, Lao Jin, they are still waiting. ”
Wang Dong walked towards the temple gate, but his voice did not fluctuate emotionally.
"Xiaodong, don't come here yet!!"
Zhang Shilin had already raised the torch in front of him, and Wang Dong's footsteps stopped.
He looked at the people at the gate of the temple, and the people at the gate of the temple also stared at him, silent for a while, and then the scene frightened everyone almost suffocated, only to see Wang Dong suddenly blurred, and his breath turned into smoke and floated away outside the temple.
"Pong-dang..."
A hatchet fell to the ground, and the two two foot traders collapsed in fright.
"Hell, hell!!" "Ah!!h
"Enter the temple!!Enter the temple!!!"
"Yes, yes, come into the temple!! take the good guys, take the good guys!!"
The remaining eight merchants fled back to the mountain temple in a hurry, all subconsciously approaching the mountain god statue and the beggar.
Zhang Shilin's breathing was still a little disordered, looking at the night outside the temple and looking at Ji Yuan.
"This one, this master, you ......"
Without waiting for Zhang Shilin to finish speaking, Ji Yuan raised his hand to stop him, Ji Yuan's face is very bad now, his lips are trembling slightly, but the environment is slightly dim so others can't see it clearly.
"Rustle... Rustle rustle ......"
The wind became stronger, and the grass and trees swayed wildly in the forest.
In his ears, the sound of steady and powerful special footsteps came from far and near, and the sound of a wild beast grinning and hissing came from outside the temple, sometimes mixed with a low roar.
Ji Yuan swallowed his saliva and stared nervously at the outside of the temple, his back was already soaked in the past few seconds.
"Don't talk...... It's coming......"
