The sky was overcast.

The night wind suddenly became fierce.

I don't know if the wind blew the snow or it was snowing, but there were snowflakes sweeping in with the wind, and they were coming from the direction they were traveling.

They are going south, and even if the wind blows on a winter night, it should be a north or northwest wind, how can it be a south wind?

The four of them realized this, and Zhou Liao shouted in a panic: "Brothers, be careful, white-haired wind! Hurry up, grab the donkey cart and follow the cart! Don't walk around, be careful of being led away by the frozen ghost hidden in the white-haired wind!"

Wang Qilin asked in a deep voice, "Is there a frozen ghost in the white-haired wind?"

Zhou Liao shrank in the car and turned around and shouted: "Yes, the white-haired wind is the most powerful, it won't appear for no reason, there must be a ghost doing it!"

The six short men said in a panic: "Big guy, can you stop saying these scary words? We are so yang, and my brother is still a child, we still have a master here, we will definitely not bump into sneaky!"

Unconsciously, he and Zhou Chat's courage and performance reversed.

"No, this wind is wrong, there is a sound in the wind!" Zhou Liao suddenly shouted again.

The six short men said: "Of course there is a sound, this is not whining and whining, is this crying, crying?"

His tongue reached the back and began to knot, and the wind was indeed whining, but the whining sound was scattered and sharp, like a widow with a dead son crying.

It's still the kind of weird cry that suppresses the voice.

They all heard it.

The snowflakes slapped on the car and on people's faces, making people unable to open their eyes.

Wang Qilin stretched out his hand to build a pergola on his brow and looked around, and vaguely saw traces of swaying in the snow.

Zhou Liao said in a panic: "Back, back, who is laughing behind?"

Wang Qilin listened carefully, and there was indeed a voice coming from the direction behind them against the wind, looming, not very loud:

"Cluck, cluck, ......"

When he heard the voice, he immediately thought of the baby's laughter.

At this time, he suddenly found that the six short men were gone!

Seeing this, he said, "Where is the last man?"

Zhou Liao looked back and looked closely, with a confused expression on his face: "What about people? yes, where did that old brother go?"

Wang Qilin shouted: "Stop, find someone!"

Zhou Tan hurriedly grabbed the reins, and he said with difficulty: "Brother Tai, it's not that I'm cold-blooded and ruthless, it's best not to stop when I encounter the white-haired wind - alas, forget it, a human life, alas, why would it be like this tonight?

The burlap behind the donkey cart shook violently, not as if it were blown by the wind, but as if something was about to come out of it!

Zhou Liao shouted loudly, and Wang Qilin was stunned: "Your dried vegetables have become fine?"

He subconsciously reached out and pressed the knife.

A shout rang out: "Master, don't do it, your own people, we are our own people!"

A thief-eyed face was revealed.

The six short men embarrassedly popped out from under the coarse cloth and said, "I was cold just now, so I got into this coarse cloth to warm my body." ”

Wang Qilin rolled his eyes, he knew that this man was scared, so he got into the car and hid.

Zhou Liao said angrily: "No wonder my old donkey's speed is slow, I still think it was blown by the wind, it turned out that you dragged it down, so I didn't get out of the car quickly." ”

The six short men sneered: "Yes, I'm sorry, I'm cold, I won't go down." ”

Zhou Liao said anxiously: "You don't want to live anymore, we are now entangled by the white-haired wind, we have to find a safe place to avoid the disaster, but we don't know where to be safe, this old donkey knows, we have to go with it, we can't drag it down, otherwise we will all die!"

Wang Qilin asked, "Why does this old donkey know where it is safe?"

Zhou Liao said: "The old horse knows the way, the old donkey is clever, these old animals have such skills, and they can seek advantages and avoid disadvantages." ”

Wang Qilin nodded and said to the six short men: "You hurry down." ”

The six short men shook their heads in fear: "I won't go down, I'm not afraid, master, I'm not afraid, but I'm cold, I'm cold and numb!"

"Hurry up!"

Wang Qilin raised the demon sword.

Forced to be anxious, he pointed to Zhou Liao and shouted, "Then he is still sitting in the car!"

Zhou Liao jumped out of the car and said, "I also walk!"

The six-short man had nothing to say, so he had to get out of the car.

At this time, Zhou Liao said again: "Big guy, hurry to the car, be careful of being blown away! There is everything in the white-haired wind, and once it is blown away, it may be entangled by something!"

As soon as his words fell, the wind blew even harder.

The six short men shouted: "What an evil wind!"

Zhou Liao hurriedly pulled out a rope from the car and shouted: "Everyone grab the car first, and then tie yourself with this rope, double insurance!"

He first wrapped the rope around his waist, wrapped it around and tied it into a slipknot, then tied it to the dumb man behind him, went around to the back of the car to tie the six short men, and finally went around the car to tie Wang Qilin.

Wang Qilin caught the rope and said, "I'll tie it myself, you hurry back and take care of the donkey, this donkey seems to be a little panicked." ”

As they spoke, the donkey cart swayed, and the old donkey sped up.

Zhou Liao handed him the rope and said, "Okay, then you tie it tightly, I'll go back quickly, maybe the weight of the car is light, and the old donkey is about to accelerate." ”

He went to suppress the old donkey's speed, put his arm around the donkey's neck and soothed it to move forward.

As soon as the white-haired wind blows, it is impossible to distinguish between the southeast and the northwest.

Wang Qilin moved forward in silence, and gradually heard a murmur behind him.

The sound was fragmented.

It's a little low mixed with the wind and snow.

He pinched his sword and turned around, and saw the six short men standing behind him tremblingly, with Buddha and Sanqing in their mouths, and they were begging for blessings.

The old donkey walked through the snow, and after walking for a long time, they vaguely saw a mound.

Walking around the mound for half a circle, a door panel appeared under the mound, and a kiln had been dug here.

Seeing the earthen kiln, Zhou Liao shouted: "Great, I finally have a place to shelter from the wind and snow, oops, great, the ground where I slept tonight has fallen!"

He went to open the door and carefully walked in with the white lantern to take a look.

This cave is not a place for people to live, it may have been used to store vegetables or grain and the like, there is no separate house in it, the whole is empty, the ground is covered with hay and thick mats, simple and shabby but dry.

Zhou Liao said happily: "The old donkey is the old donkey, and he took us to find a good place." ”

The six short men were cheap, and after coming in, they muttered: "Alas, there is not even a pot, otherwise we can cook some wild vegetables and drink hot soup." ”

He was a little dissatisfied with this, which made Zhou Liao displeased: "Brother Tai, it's good to have a dry place to stay this day, and the requirements can't be too high, right?"

Wang Qilin rolled up a thick mat of hay and lit the fire, and the four of them rushed up to roast the fire first.

The six short men rubbed their hands vigorously and muttered, "Damn, it's really cold tonight, and my hands are numb." ”

The hay burned too fast, and the dumb man went to the car to take down some wood, and was shocked to see this week: "You dismantled my car?"

The dumb man squeaked and whined, and Wang Qilin said in a deep voice: "I saw what he picked up in the forest just now, your car is fine." ”

Zhou Liao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

After he had roasted and warmed up, he went out and led the donkey in, took out a pot and boiled some snow water for the donkey to drink, and said lovingly: "My old donkey has really made many meritorious contributions." ”

The six short men smiled cheaply: "Yes, this donkey is a good thing, it can pull goods and lead the way, and in the future, when the old ones can't walk, they can stew meat and boil donkey glue." ”

He thought it was humorous, and he laughed happily.

Wang Qilin looked at him like a fool.

It's a pity that Shen Yi is not here, otherwise the two of them can sympathize with each other.

The firewood crackled and burned, and the room was a little choked, but the smell of fireworks gave people a sense of stability.

Zhou Liao used an iron pot to boil snow water and sprinkled wild vegetables on it, and after he was busy, he asked: "By the way, we walked all the way together, I don't know who the three brothers are and where their hometowns are." ”

The six short men said: "My name is He Yaozi, this is my brother He Mengzi, and our two brothers are both from Xuanyi Township in the north. ”

Wang Qilin looked at their appearance and said, "I thought you two were called Wu Da Wu Er." ”

The six short men were stunned for a moment, and then smiled and walked away from him.

He found that he couldn't understand what the other party was saying.

So the other party may have a mental problem.

But what if the other party has a mental problem? I can't beat others, so I don't dare to provoke them!

The water quickly boiled, the fragrance of wild vegetables came out, and Zhou Liao beckoned the three of them to come over and drink hot soup.

Wang Qilin waved his hand tiredly and said, "You guys eat, I'm too sleepy, I have to sleep for a while." In this way, it is not safe to sleep in the wilderness, tonight we will take turns to keep vigil, I will sleep first, and then you will wake me up when you are ready to sleep. ”

Zhou Liao wanted to persuade him, but saw that he had fallen asleep with a long knife on his pillow.

Seeing this, he had no choice but to say to the six short men and the mute: "This brother Tai is a person who understands, and you have to be careful when you stay in the field at night, otherwise something may happen." ”

The six short men stared at the wild vegetable soup and said casually, "What can happen?"

Zhou Liao perked up and opened the conversation: "What's going on? What do you say! It's easy to meet a strongman, not to mention, it's nothing to meet a strongman, you can break your fortune and avoid disasters, I'm afraid that you won't meet people!"

"Especially when the child is in power, the yin is heavy, at this time the little ghosts and monsters between heaven and earth have come out, they like to secretly follow people, and then take the opportunity to start, some drag away the ghost to be a slave to themselves, and some directly occupy the body of the person, and there are many means!"

The eyelids of the six-short man jumped, and he pulled his clothes uncomfortably and said, "You look very experienced, what's wrong, have you encountered it before?"

Zhou Liao snorted and laughed, and asked instead of answering: "Do you know how your body will react when you are entangled by a little ghost?"

The six short men and the mute shook their heads one after another.

Zhou Liao said: "I just told you that when people are on the road at night, the Yin Spirit will walk in front of his body to ward off disasters and evil spirits. The ghost doesn't rest when you rest, it will stand guard by your side, so it will alert you if a demon appears. ”

"But the Yin can't speak, and we can't see, so how does it remind the body? ”

"The most common thing is a shiver for no reason, and the eyelids will beat inexplicably, these are the ghosts that remind you through the body. There are also some points that are not easy to pay attention to in winter, such as numbness in the hands and feet, and the face is stunned and can't make expressions. ”

"Some people will think that this is frozen hemp, but it is not, this is a ghost!"

In the end, Zhou Liao's voice became louder, and the six short men subconsciously shuddered.

He looked at Zhou Liao in a daze, and felt that his eyelids were beating from the moment he entered the room.

He looked at the mute brother again, and his eyelids were beating unconsciously.

The hands and feet of the six short men trembled, and he rubbed his hands vigorously, from the beginning of the roasting fire, his hands were already hot, but they were still numb.

He thought he was numb from freezing......

The situation was not good, and the six short men hurriedly murmured in a low voice: "Buddha bless, Bodhisattva bless, the three Qing Dao ancestors kowtow to you in their hearts!"

"Shut up!" Zhou Liao glared at him, "Teach you an experience, don't recite any Buddhist scriptures and Taoist mantras when you encounter strange things, unless you really have cultivation, otherwise reciting these things is like roaring at wild beasts, this is provoking them!"

The six short men shut up in a panic.

"Also, when you meet strangers in the wilderness and people ask you for your name and place of origin, you must not say this, otherwise someone will be on you, and people will be able to find your home. ”

The six short men nodded hurriedly, and his mute brother pulled him to make a gesture.

Knowing what his brother meant, he was stunned.

He had already told his brother's message just now.

He grabbed his brother's wrist in horror and looked out, and gave him a look quietly.

Zhou Liao said leisurely: "The last experience, don't run in a panic when you encounter strange things." Originally, you have a yin soul to protect your body and yang energy to ward off evil spirits, just like a wild boar has fangs, ordinary ghosts can't hurt you. ”

"But if you run away in a panic, the ghost will be scattered and the three lights on your body will be extinguished, won't you become a pig on the board?

The six short men hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, brother, you know a lot." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Liao laughed with satisfaction, his smile was a little perverse, and his expression was a little ill-intentioned.

He said, "I have taught you so much experience in warding off evil spirits, how can you repay me?"

The six short men wanted to smile and thank him, but he was shocked to find that he couldn't laugh anymore, and his face was numb.

Zhou Liao shook his head and said, "Okay, I'm joking with you." ”

The six-short man muttered, "No, no, no, our brother has indeed learned a lot from you, so we should thank you." ”

Zhou Liao smiled: "No, I said that I was joking with you, not that I don't need you to repay me, but - what I said just now was all nonsense!"

His smile grew more and more strange, and the corners of his mouth were raised, and some teeth were faintly exposed.

These teeth are all as sharp as dog teeth.

Zhou Liao said: "Actually, it doesn't matter if I'm talking nonsense or not. Because if the goblins want to find you, whatever you do—"

"You can't escape!"

The six short men shouted: "I have a yin soul to protect my body! I still have yang energy, I am a child man, and our brothers are all child men!"

He reached out to grab the mute and found that the mute was trembling terribly.

Seeing this, he glared at his brother angrily and said, "What are you afraid of? We all have yin spirits, we all have yang energy, and besides, the ghosts haven't come in yet!"

Zhou Liao said softly: "In this way, I will tell you one thing seriously, you know, the person who dies cannot be buried casually, he must be tied with hemp rope and put in the coffin, and then tied to the coffin with a hemp rope before he can be buried, right?"

"Why?"

"The two hemp ropes have different effects, the rope that binds the coffin is called the continuous chain, which is the strongest and can tie the coffin to prevent the contents from pushing the coffin board. ”

"What about the rope that binds the body? This is called the fairy rope, which can bind people's yin souls and unjust souls, hehe......"

Listening to this cold laughter, the six short men slowly looked at his waist, and he still had the black rope tied around his waist.

The rope was so strange that it was so light on people's waists that they forgot they didn't have it tied when they entered the house.

He raised his head and looked at Zhou Liao expressionlessly-it wasn't that he wanted to pretend to be forced to deliberately not show his expression, but his face was completely numb, and he really couldn't make an expression:

"Are you a ghost?"

Zhou Liao smiled: "What are you talking about? I will teach you another experience, ghosts have no shadow, look at me, I have a shadow." ”

The six short men looked at the ground, and sure enough, they saw a shadow shining on the ground behind Zhou Liao.

He breathed a sigh of relief, then realized that his brother was tugging at him.

When he turned his head to look, he saw his brother trembling as he pointed to Zhou Liao's shadow.

So he looked at the shadow behind Zhou Liao again:

At this time, Zhou Liao was sitting on the ground smiling and grinning, while his shadow was shaking, and his shadow was tearing something in both hands!

"Are you a ghost?" a voice sounded.

Zhou Liao licked his lips and smiled subconsciously: "Guess...... Huh?"

It wasn't the brothers in front of him who were talking, the voices were coming from behind him.

He looked back in amazement and saw Wang Qilin lying on the ground holding a piece of rope and playing in circles.

Zhou Liao was not surprised by this, and said: "Oh, you didn't tie yourself with a fairy rope just now? Hehe, smart, smart, it seems that this dwarf is right, you are a master." ”

Wang Qilin said: "I'm not a master, but you're not a fierce ghost, your Taoism is still too low." I have long seen that you have a problem, but I am too lazy to clean you up, why, you want to do something to us now?"

Zhou Liaohu asked suspiciously: "Hmm, you have already seen that I have a problem, where am I showing my feet?"

Wang Qilin threw away the bundle of immortal ropes and sat up lazily, and said, "It's too much, just say a few." ”

"First, how abnormal is it to meet you as a merchant on a field road at night?"

Zhou Liao was not convinced: "I came here when I heard the sound." ”

Wang Qilin shook his head: "You are coming back from our way to go, and our voice can't come that far, so it's impossible for you to find us by listening to our voice, and you happen to meet us." ”

"Second, after the meeting, you said that there was a ghost freezing to death at the intersection in front of you, so we have to go together, how abnormal is this?"

"I've heard word from others. He retorted.

Wang Qilin shook his head again: "I just drank and chatted with many handlebar style last night, and none of them knew the news of the frozen ghost at that intersection. This news is only known to their local insiders, and these people will not spread the news, otherwise the big guy will be on guard and even attract Tianwumen or Tianjian to listen to the heavenly prison, how can they scary people and grab goods?"

"Third, the blood on the car is that you just wrote it, although it is frozen, but the ice is not strong enough, Ah Liu reached out and touched it, and he could touch the blood. If someone had written blood on your car in the afternoon, it would have become ice long ago, and he couldn't pick the ice with his fingernails, so how could he touch the blood?"

Zhou Chat was speechless.

"Fourth, we went to the intersection, and Ah Liu's younger brother found a frightened young man, but the young man woke up and saw us scared to death. Who is he afraid of? Who can scare him like this?"

Zhou Liao smiled: "Then you guessed wrong, he is not afraid of me." ”

Wang Qilin nodded and said, "I didn't say that he was afraid of you, I just said that you have a problem." ”

"Fifth, when you stacked the futon at the intersection to worship the things in the shrine, you deliberately placed the futon at the northeast corner of the intersection, which happened to block the traces of a fire on the ground, and you were afraid that people would find out about it, right? You are afraid that we will be suspicious of the bonfire in the middle of the road, right?"

Zhou Liao smacked his lips and gave a thumbs up in some admiration.

"Sixth, when we went on the road later, we suddenly encountered a white-haired snowstorm, and then you heard a strange sound in the wind and snow three times or twice. ”

"You must know that I have opened three eight scenes and twenty-four gods, but I haven't heard it, and how can you, an ordinary person, hear better than me?"

Hearing this, the six short men couldn't help but shout: "Master, master, since you found out something was wrong early, why didn't you hurry up and kill him?"

"You him with the strength of your brother! him with all the strength you want! You and I don't blame you, Master, him. ”

Wang Qilin glared, and his voice suddenly became much quieter.

"There is a reason why I did this," Wang Qilin said angrily, "He's a little minion, I'm going to wait for him to get the corpse out!"

As soon as he said this, Zhou Liao, who had been sitting firmly in the Diaoyutai posture, showed a panicked look for the first time: "What did you say?"

Wang Qilin said: "When we met, you rode a donkey cart towards us. If I'm not mistaken, you're coming from the direction of the woods junction. ”

"It should be that after the corpse learned the news of the frozen ghosts, he wanted to increase his cultivation, but when he went, he found out that this was a group of people pretending to be ghosts, so it killed those people, and stripped them of their skin and flesh, and threw their bones into the bonfire to roast, in order to vent the anger of being deceived. ”

"The young man in the forest was stunned by this scene, he has seen you and seen the corpse, he was scared to death by the corpse!"

"That's why you used futons to cover up the original presence of the campfire, and you didn't want people to find the strange dead bodies in the middle of the road. ”

"Also, after we hit the road, we encountered a white-haired snowstorm, this is the ability to clean up corpses, right? ”

Speaking of this, Wang Qilin pointed to the shrine on his back: "It's not a four-way ghost inside, it's a pure corpse inside! When we went to see the young man in the forest, you were holding the shrine in your arms, and the young man looked up and saw the pure corpse in the shrine, so he was scared to death!"

"Sword out!"
