The moon stack stopped, and the god came to the door
The man in white turned back in the smoke, faceless and faceless, only a pair of bewitching white eyes.
Bewitching white pupils looked at them.
Tianying Tianbi shouted, the sword flipped over, and the volley flew into the air, and the double swords were about to reach the man in white, and the white smoke around the man in white suddenly rose.
The man in white disappears. Disappeared in an instant.
The three of them knew that there were no ghosts in this world, but the white-clothed facelings were even more demonic than ghosts.
Tianying scolded, "It's incredible"
Tianbi said, "Even if we don't move, Mr. Nanhua will send these evil sects to deal with us"
Gao Yucheng sighed, "No matter what you do, you need to pay a price"
"Even if I pay the price, I am willing to exchange blood for the peace of the rivers and lakes," Tianbi Tianying's voice was solemn.
The three of them continued on their way, hurrying in the night.
After more than ten miles, the three of them finally entered the mountain, and the mountain road has always been difficult to walk. The trees are boundless, and the strange rocks are craggy. Gao Yucheng instructed them in advance, "Mr. Nanhua's tricks are weird, and he has always used the corpses in the wild mountains and deserted graves to deal with people, we must be careful" Tianbi proposed to the two, "Brother Gao, it's better for us to choose the road"
"We have reached the boundary of Xiangxi, this mountain is hundreds of miles in radius, even if Mr. Nanhua knows everything, I am afraid it will be difficult to set up an ambush on this difficult mountain road."
"Brother Gao, which path do we choose?" Tianying wanted to ask Gao Yucheng's opinion.
Gao Yucheng smiled and said, "Listen to you"
Tianbi pondered, "Mr. Nanhua likes to set up ambushes and plots all the way, then we will go to the most difficult one, I will see how he is"
The mountain road walked seven or eight miles, it was an old mountain road, rugged and barren, steep and abnormal, and the night was peaceful and peaceful. At this time, the sky was just dawning, there was light, and the three of them saw a stone building high on the mountain. Gao Yucheng and they can be regarded as exhausted.
Tianbi frowned and spoke first, "Could it be Mr. Nanhua's ambush?"
Tianying pondered, "Now we are exhausted, or we will go around again"
Gao Yucheng said, "The mountain road is difficult, how long will it take to go around, if Mr. Nanhua can ambush here in advance, we can't go anywhere..."
Gao Yucheng's eyes were like stars.
"No matter what kind of demons and monsters come on the rivers and lakes, we will eradicate him together"
The three of them spoke in unison.
"Not bad!"
Wind chimes rang from the stone building. The three of them went up to the tall building. Looking at the stone building closely, it is scarlet. It seems that this stone building seems to be inhabited, surrounded by a fence, and planted with wild vegetables.
There are also two words on the door.
Monthly stacks.
Could it be an inn? Who would open an inn here in the barren mountains and wilderness?
The door is locked from the inside.
"Knock Knock"
Tianying knocked on the door.
"Is there anyone" No one answered, Tianying knocked on the door again, and after a while, a voice came, the local dialect of the mountains.
Tianying Tianbi understood.
"Who?"
"Passerby in the Mountains"
The one who opened the door was a middle-aged swarthy fu girl. She opened the door a little. He looked at the three of them outside the door with a little gaze.
"Who are you?"
"The Man in a Hurry"
"How did you find this place?"
"I got lost in the mountain road, I didn't want to come here, I was too tired, and I wanted to rest here"
The middle-aged swarthy Fu man's eyes fell on the sword in the hands of the three of them. Shrunk back again.
"You..."
"Don't worry, we are not bad people" Tianying raised the sword in his hand, the mountain road is difficult, it is safer to take a sword. ”
"Dare to ask you," Gao Yucheng asked.
"I'm the owner here"
"Can the owner let us rest here?"
Maybe the three of them really don't look like bad guys. Or maybe it's an ulterior attempt.
The female shopkeeper looked suspicious, but she still opened the door for them.
Gao Yucheng pretended to fall and had no intention of clasping her wrist. She doesn't know martial arts.
The door was pushed open, and the stone building did not look as small as it looked from the outside, but had a lot of rooms.
The doors and windows are tall, as if they are hiding some unknown secret.
The female shopkeeper said: "I didn't want to take you in, but there are barren mountains within a radius of dozens of miles, so I'll be kind enough to keep you here for a day."
Tianbi asked.
"The three of us will arrange three rooms for me"
"There's only one, and the rest is full"
"Full?"
"How can this place be full?"
"These rooms don't look like they're full. ”
The female shopkeeper's voice changed, "If you don't want to, please go out"
"Forget it," Gao Yucheng made a round. "One room was good.
"This..."Tianying Tianbi and the two of them wanted to say something, but he stopped them.
"Give the money first," the female shopkeeper said unceremoniously as she stretched out her hand. "Five-Striped Silver Coins"
Tianbi is dissatisfied with "it is not a black shop"
"If it's too expensive, you can't stop it" Before she finished speaking, Gao Yucheng had already given her five patterns of silver.
The shopkeeper took the money and said, "When you are resting, don't talk about what you hear or see."
"Oh?"
Tianying wonders "why"
The female shopkeeper said, "Do you know why this is called the moon stack?"
The shopkeeper explained, "This is an inn, but it's not for people."
"Not for people?"
"For the Delightful God"
"What is Him?"
The shopkeeper didn't go any further.
"Don't make a noise when you hear something at night"
The three of them thought at the same time.
"It seems like something out of the ordinary"
Although the three of them were surprised and curious, they did not continue to ask. I read books
What the goddess of joy the female shopkeeper said, no one among the three of them knew. Maybe it's a custom. Maybe she was arranged by Mr. Nanhua.
The house was poorly furnished and dimly furnished. The three of them fell asleep without paying attention to this.
Open your eyes.
The sun is slipping away.
The moon climbed up the mountain early.
A hook of crescent moon scarlet.
As soon as the sky was dark, Gao Yucheng woke up. The high windows make the room even darker. Gao Yucheng lit the candle.
The mountains and fields seem to have a different sound than the insects and birds.
At this time, Tianying Tianbi also woke up.
They were silent and listening.
The sharpness of the swordsman's master, they seem to hear that different sound.
The first thing they heard was the sound of the bell.
The bell shook in his hand. Clear and hazy in the open mountains.
After a while, the sound of the bell gradually became clear.
The sound is closer.
The hearts of the three of them moved.
"It's coming!"
The three of them could hear clearly. "Brush~Brush~Brush~" The neat jumping sound seems like a rhythm in the shaking of the bell.
The bell stops.
The brushing sound also stopped.
The door creaked open. It was as if he had been waiting behind the door for a long time. I don't know when that bend of the moon was hidden by the fog.
The bell shook again.
"Brush ~ Brush ~ Brush ~"
Something jumped in. Jumped into the courtyard. The precincts were also dim.
Seven or eight dark shadows came in.
"How many are here today?" said the female shopkeeper.
"Plus my eight," the voice was hoarse. Sounds like a lack of air.
Gao Yucheng and the three of them slipped into the fog with the moon and looked at the courtyard with a little light.
The seven or eight dark shadow figures, all strangely dressed in high hats and robes. Standing side by side in a row, looking stiff and stiff. Faces are blurred, and a note is evident floating over their heads. Gao Yucheng pondered his intentions.
Tianying Tianbi saw it very clearly. That's a charm!
"Scheduled?"
"It's arranged. ”
The person who was talking to the female shopkeeper suddenly sniffed with his nose and glanced at Gao Yucheng's room with his eyes. Seems very dissatisfied. His voice became very slow and low.
"Somebody coming?"
"Three people, the one who got lost in the mountains happened to come here," replied the shopkeeper.
"I didn't tell you, it's the most taboo thing in our line of business."
The female shopkeeper sighed, "Life is not easy, just the money you gave has already been spent, how can it be enough! They will leave early tomorrow morning, but I told them that God is happy to come to the door today, so that they must not come out..."
Could it be that they are the "happy gods"?", the three of them thought to themselves.
The hoarse voice was silent and silent. Then he dropped a sentence coldly.
"If you offend the god of joy, I will see what you will do when the time comes!"
He shook the bell and shouted, "Go!"
The three of them could see it clearly.
The tall hat and robe stood stiff, and the bell moved, and they put their hands together. Putting it on the shoulder in front of him, he jumped in!
The man with the bell waited for them to jump into the room, and then went into a nearby room.
"Is it to drive out corpses?"
"Since ancient times, there has been a legend of chasing corpses in Xiangxi. Is it that what I encountered today is to drive out corpses, and the so-called god of joy is not a corpse?"
The three of them guessed in their hearts.
The moonlight was too dim for the three of them to see clearly, whether they were people or corpses. Everything is unknown. However, after the black figures in the top hats jumped over, the three of them faintly smelled a rancid smell. There were no candles in their house. Go into the house in the dark.
At some point, the moon emerged from the clouds and became even more scarlet. After making sure that this one yard is completely quiet. Tianying spoke. "I figured out what this female shopkeeper is like God."
"Oh, what is the god of joy?" Tianbi continued. ”
"The Tongue of the Dead Is the Joy of God"
"They're dead?"
"It's a corpse..."
"Where are these bodies going to be driven?"
Gao Yucheng's eyes flashed.
"They don't have to be dead"
"Oh?"
"Maybe it's coming for us," Gao Yucheng analyzed.
Gao Yucheng said, "This corpse chaser came not early or late, it happened to come when we came, I suspect that it is Mr. Nanhua's people, and the corpse is just an excuse"
"What about us?"
"Let's wait a little longer, I'll go and see first, if it's really Mr. Nanhua's demons and monsters, I have to cut them down!"
Finally all the lights went out, and everything in the mountains fell silent. The door was quietly pushed open.
Gao Yucheng's body was light, and he turned around again and again, and turned to the door of the room where those tall hats and black shadows were called happy gods.
There was no movement in the room, not a trace of breathing.
Is it really a dead man?
Gao Yucheng entered the rooms of those joyful gods.
He was so dark that he couldn't see clearly.
He lit the flint.
As soon as the flint was lit, the light of the stars faintly dimmed, Gao Yucheng saw that there was no bed in the room, a coffin, and there were seven people in black in high hats standing stiffly next to the coffin.
Gray-blue robes, gray-black hats. Pieces of talisman paper were pasted on their foreheads.
The room was cold!
Suddenly, the flint goes out, and the room goes dark.
Gao Yucheng took two steps back.
There was no movement.
Gao Yucheng settled down and lit the flint. Taking two steps forward, they remained motionless, and the smell of rancid smell was even stronger.
