The snow is sunny at the beginning, the tree buds are turned into ice, the white walls and gray tiles, and the sky and the earth are the same color. In front of the villa, the plaque is tilted and the handwriting is blurred. When the Qing Gang arrived at the door, two men came down to stand guard, and the carriage was pulled into the village, leaving a wheel seal.

The whistlers rubbed the corners of their eyes, chatted and chatted, tired. Along the way, the Green Gang looked forward and acted cautiously, but now when they arrived at the place, they lost their vigilance.

"Senior Brother Lin, it's enough to follow you, right? Look at this wilderness, cold and snowy, if you continue to boil, people will freeze to death, it's better to go back as soon as possible and deal with things-I think Master and his old man will understand our hardships and will not deliberately make things difficult. ”

Zhang Yingzhuo woke up with snot and retreated in his heart. Lin Yi felt that it was an opportunity and said: "Senior Brother Zhang, when mortals act, they are often afraid on the way to achieve their goals, but they will be negligent, and the same is true for the Green Gang. We had been starving and freezing for more than two hours, and now we had such a great opportunity, how could we miss it? We might as well sneak in and take a look, or at least know who they were meeting with. ”

Lin Yi didn't allow him to resist, and dragged his clothes around the snow slope. When he arrived at the side of the villa, he saw that there was no one around, so he drove Zhang Yingzhuo and climbed over the wall to enter.

As soon as he landed, Lin Yi immediately buried him and hid behind a snow-covered well. From a distance, I saw the convoy heading towards the village, and did not send any more people to investigate, as expected.

"Senior Brother Zhang, I have an ominous premonition, hurry up. Lin Yi frowned, his heart pounding.

"Bullshit premonition!" Zhang Yingzhuo looked disdainful and pouted, "Why didn't I see anything?"

"Senior Brother Zhang, haven't you noticed it yet?" Lin Yi squinted slightly, thinking, "This villa is obviously deserted and decadent, there are no idlers, and it is far away from Yongzhou, Zhao Qimangui is a thousand catties of the Qing Gang, and he actually personally escorted the carriage over, and only brought a few of his subordinates, isn't it strange to you?"

Zhang Yingzhuo thought for a while, looked up at him in a daze, and remained silent.

Lin Yi sighed helplessly and said, "Senior Brother Zhang, do you think it's possible that there are some things hidden here that can't be seen and that you have to take care of them every half a month?"

Zhang Yingzhuo rolled his eyes and said suspiciously: "Take care of it?" Could it be that the Chengqing Gang has any pets, but what pets only eat for half a month...... Alas, not good!"

He suddenly screamed, almost alarming the Qinggang sentry, and Lin Yi hurriedly covered his mouth. Zhang Yingzhuo hesitated, pulled Lin Yi's hand away, took a breath, and said in a fearful voice: "It's so dangerous, it's so dangerous, it's good that I didn't follow it, thanks to your cleverness, why did you pick up a life, my mother, they are raising hungry ghosts!"

Lin Yi looked solemn, stood up on the edge of the well, and said in a deep voice: "If it is really a hungry ghost, most of the people in the carriage are tied to the living." He closed his eyes and said worriedly: "That day, I was knocked unconscious and taken away by them, and I wanted to come to the Qing Gang to concoct it according to the law, and kidnap some living people to feed the hungry ghosts - Senior Brother Zhang, without further ado, let's go over and think of rescue." ”

Zhang Yingzhuo nodded, and was just about to get up, when his face suddenly changed, he covered his stomach and squatted down, clenched his teeth, and shook his hand: "Ouch, ouch, no, my stomach hurts." ”

Lin Yi glared at him angrily, and said angrily: "Senior Brother Zhang, at such a juncture, you still want to escape from the battle, can you have a little backbone!"

Zhang Yingzhuo had cold sweat on his forehead, and he grinned in pain: "No, Senior Brother Lin, I'm really not pretending, it is estimated that those two flatbreads in the morning ate a bad stomach - this peddler who killed the blank dared to harm his grandfather!"

He fell into the snow, endured the cramping pain in his abdomen, and said resolutely: "Senior Brother Lin, compared to the lives of innocent people, this pain is nothing at all, you don't have to worry about me, go and save people!"

Lin Yihu looked suspiciously, and with his eyesight, he couldn't see whether Zhang Yingzhuo was pretending to be sick, so he had to stomp his feet and complain: "Senior Brother Zhang, you are really unreliable, I will go over first, you find a place to hide, be careful." With that, he hurried towards the convoy.

Zhang Yingzhuo lay in place and moaned for a long time, suddenly opened one eye, and caught a glimpse of Lin Yi had gone away, and quickly got up with his hands and feet, his face was full of pain, and he shouted: "Xiao Lin'er, my brother's martial arts are low, I can't help you, and I hope to ask for more blessings!" turned around and fled.

And here, Lin Yi hid behind the broken wall in the village, took out a short knife from his cloak, and followed the Green Gang all the way. About half a mile away, the carriage came to a halt on a gentle slope, where a young man was waiting.

When Lin Yi saw this person at first glance, his heart shook sharply: Wei Wenbin, why is he here!

Wei Wenbin was wearing a thin shirt, standing in the snow, his cheeks were bruised from the cold, but he had no expression, like a zombie, standing still. Zhao Qiman took people out of the car, and Wei Wenbin slowly said, "What about the sacrifice?"

Zhao Qiman had a cold face, and ordered his subordinates to lift out two middle-aged men from the car, tied their hands and feet behind their backs, and threw them on the ground unconscious, and said impatiently: "Okay, I have sent the birth sacrifice, where is the employer?"

Wei Wenbin turned his head crunched, his neck twisted, his eyes were like ashes, and he said blankly: "I didn't come." ”

"What are you kidding!" Zhao Qiman said angrily, trembling with anger, "If she doesn't come, who will suppress the toxicity for me!"

Wei Wenbin's face stiffened, and he said slowly: "The master commanded, the Green Gang has no use value, you can die." ”

"Bastard, dare to talk to Miss like this!" The five young men of the Qing Gang raised their blades, rushed up to surround Wei Wenbin, and shouted: "Tell the employer to get out, if not, Lao Tzu will kick you down and feed the hungry ghosts together!"

Seeing that Wei Wenbin didn't answer, a Qinggang man picked up a single knife and swaggered over, "Stinky boy, don't cry when you don't see the coffin, right?"

Wei Wenbin looked at him blankly, and saw that the green gang man was furious in his heart, lowered his head and spat it, his face was fierce, and he suddenly raised his knife and slashed at his head!

With a clatter, the bones shattered, Wei Wenbin's forehead was split in half, the Qinggang man retreated, and the single knife was still stuck in his head, so frightened that Lin Yi almost screamed in the distance.

But in an instant, Wei Wenbin actually moved again as if he was fine, shook his body, rushed to the front of the Qinggang man, spat out the word "death", and swept out horizontally with his fist.

The Qinggang man was so frightened that he was stunned on the spot, and his face was frightened. Wei Wenbin threw a heavy punch and landed firmly on his temple, "Bang!" His head burst like a watermelon.

The men of the Green Gang screamed in shock, their legs weakened, and they collapsed to the ground. Wei Wenbin rushed into the crowd, his fist was like pounding garlic, and he hammered them to death in a few strokes, leaving Zhao Qiman alone, holding the dagger and trembling.

Wei Wenbin dragged the corpse to the top of the snow slope, threw it in, and the corpse disappeared out of thin air, and then the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground was heard. After finishing this, he continued to walk towards Zhao Qiman, and suddenly stood still again, his nose twitched, his eyes fell on Lin Yi's hiding place, and he said indifferently: "There is a mouse." ”

Lin Yi saw that the situation was not good, and got up and wanted to run, but Wei Wenbin strode like a fly, and after a few ups and downs, the figure reached the corner of his eye. Lin Yi hurriedly stepped forward on his toes, his upper body hanging upside down, and he could avoid his sweep, but he didn't dare to resist, turned his head and ran up the snow slope.

Zhao Qiman was surprised and surprised when he saw him appear, and then saw Wei Wenbin following closely behind, so he didn't have a chance to ask, so he turned around and ran. The two of them ran wildly, Lin Yi rushed up the snow slope, and saw that there was a five-foot hole in front of him, thinking that Wei Wenbin had thrown the body into here just now.

Hearing the footsteps behind him close at hand, Lin Yi didn't have time to think about it, so he grabbed Zhao Qiman in a hurry, jumped down, and Zhao Qiman screamed: "Don't!"

Lin Yi woke up in mid-air, and said in his heart: Bitter, I'm afraid there are not hungry ghosts below!

"Bang!" the two fell into the snow, and their bodies were in pain. Lin Yi looked up and saw that it was three zhang high from the entrance of the cave, and it was in the shape of an inverted bowl, so he couldn't get out at all, his face became extremely ugly, and he felt remorseful.

Wei Wenbin was lying at the entrance of the cave, the blade was still stuck in his head, and he couldn't stop looking down, Zhao Qiman was so frightened that he hugged Lin Yi tightly. Wei Wenbin wandered for a long time, but couldn't find a way to get down, so he left expressionlessly.

Zhao Qiman blushed and let go of his embrace, and said angrily: "Look at what you have done, don't pull me on your back if you look for death, do you know what kind of place this is-ah?"

Zhao Qiman roared, echoes wafting through the crypt.

Lin Yi also glared at her angrily, and said angrily: "Do you blame me, if I didn't pull you just now, you would have been beaten into a meatloaf by him!"

"You!" Zhao Qiman was speechless, knowing that he was wrong, he clasped his hands in his arms and stomped his feet and said: "What's the difference, it's the same death when you come down." ”

Lin Yi ignored the cold snow, turned out a short knife, stuck it in his belt, kicked away the corpses of several Qinggang men around him, sat down cross-legged, and said with a straight face: "I said eldest lady, you have nothing to raise any hungry ghosts, and in the end you will harm others and yourself, which is called self-reaping the consequences." ”

Zhao Qiman was shocked when he heard this, and said in a trembling voice: "You, how do you know, who told you?"

Lin Yi gritted his teeth and breathed, "I'm not stupid, you sneaked here, what good things can you do besides feeding hungry ghosts?"

"Then you're jumping-"

"Urgent. ”

Lin Yi choked her with two words, and was about to ask her for details, when suddenly the top of her head darkened, her heart was alert, and she hurriedly pulled Zhao Qiman back to avoid it.

"Bang, bang!" Wei Wenbin came back and threw the two living people into the crypt as well. glanced down and said sluggishly, "It's not stoned." ”

"Tsk. Lin Yi frowned, waited for Wei Wenbin to leave again, took out a knife, and wanted to cut the hemp rope, but heard a sound of iron chains in his ears.

He stopped, Zhao Qiman grabbed his hand hard, and the two hid in the dark, Lin Yi could feel her body trembling. In the past few moments, the sound of chains has become louder and louder, and the figure of a young girl has walked to the light of the cave entrance.

Lin Yi's eyes widened, and he said strangely: "Xianglan?"

The girl who was tied around her neck by an iron chain was none other than Xianglan, the maid of Xufu. Xianglan trembled, her face was yellow and thin, she stood on the snowdrift, her eyes shot to Lin Yi's side, and she said softly: "Yes...... A lifesaver?"

"It's me, the Xu Mansion was haunted that day, and you escaped?" Lin Yi said in surprise.

"It's really a life-saving benefactor!" Xianglan burst into tears, blood finally appeared on her face, and she slowly walked over with an iron chain, choking up: "Benefactor, that day Xu Mansion suffered, Xianglan escaped by hiding in the corpse, but was arrested by the Qing Gang again......"

"Whoa!" Xianglan took a few steps, the chain was stretched straight, and her body fell backwards fiercely. She groaned, clutched her throat and cried, "Benefactor, come and save me, help Xianglan open the chain." ”

Lin Yi ignored Zhao Qiman's obstruction, walked out of the shadows, and said worriedly: "Miss Xianglan, are you okay?"

"It hurts. Xianglan cried pitifully, sat sideways in the snow, and beckoned to him: "Childe, come and save me." ”
