Chapter 18: There Are Ghosts

Pi Mountain, not majestic, typical loess mountain, was also one of the Taoist cave blessed land, but those immortal traces have long turned into the dust of history, but it has become the place where many princes and princes and wise hermits sleep for a long time, so there is "the virtuous and the foolish and the noble and the lowly return together, and the tomb of the north tomb is high and sag;

Chi Yunfei sighed at the lush mountains, Tan Guohua also felt that this place was very special, always giving people a cold feeling, at first he thought it was because there were too many mausoleums here, but soon found through the eye of the sky that there was a black fog here, this fog is completely invisible to the naked eye, but it can effectively resist the sun's rays.

"Brother Chi, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and now it's twilight, I think we should worship the mountain another day, right?"

"You're right, it's just that we came here, and we don't even have a village, how can we stay overnight?"

Tan Guohua had already noticed this, "The weather is fine today, we have a tent, sleeping in the open is not a problem, you can also enjoy the moon, wait for me to make some hometown food for Brother Chi!"

"Oh, you can cook?"

"The children of poor families are in charge early!"

"Okay, I'm going to taste Brother Chen's craftsmanship!"

The two found a leeward place in the southwest of the mountain, Tan Guohua built a simple earthen stove with a sapper shovel, and then took a small iron urn and a leather bag from the small gray back, and the leather pocket was filled with oil, salt, sauce and vinegar and other condiments, with these things, you can also eat hot when you are sick.

Chi Yunfei came back with a pheasant in his left hand and a hare in his right hand, and said with a smile when he saw his things: "I didn't expect the guy prepared by my brother to be so complete, hehe, I thought that what kind of treasure did the little gray camel have, and it was easy not to open it!"

Tan Guohua started to do it, it was not difficult for the people who had worked as cooks to clean up these, and an hour later, braised rabbit meat, stir-fried chicken, caught a few small fish in the stream, and made a delicious fish soup.

Chi Yunfei has a prominent family background, what kind of delicacies have not been tasted, but due to the restrictions of the times, most of the dishes eaten are steamed, stewed, and roasted, and the spicy chicken fried with dogwood is not as delicious as the chili pepper, but before the fish soup comes up, a large plate of dishes has already entered his stomach.

"It's so delicious, it's the first time I've seen you do this, the virtuous brother must give me the method, otherwise it will be tasteless to eat chicken in the future!"

Tan Guohua said with a smile, "This is my family's handicraft, if Brother Chi wants to learn it, he has to come up with the equivalent thing in exchange!"

"The Thunder Sword Technique can't be passed on to you!" Chi Yunfei said with great embarrassment.

Tan Guohua is just joking, how can other people's unique swordsmanship be easily spread?

Drinking, eating delicious food, and admiring the moon can not only reduce the pain of homesickness, but also make this Mid-Autumn Festival enjoyable.

In the middle of the moon, the wine was almost drunk, and the dishes were only left, and the cleaning was finished, the two took turns to rest, Tan Guohua put on a piece of clothing, added some firewood to the earthen stove, and then meditated in front of the tent, and from time to time there was a ghost crying wolf howl in his ears.

About the third watch, there was a terrible roar from the opposite mountainside, which was not like a wild beast, but different from the cry of a man, and it made people tremble when they heard it.

Tan Guohua stood up, took out his steel sword and looked into the distance, with the help of the bright moonlight, he could vaguely see someone fighting.

"What's wrong?" Chi Yunfei didn't fall asleep, and the movement just now woke him up.

"Look there!"

Chi Yunfei watched carefully, "It seems that there is a group of people fighting, this is the territory of the Beibi faction, let's go over and take a look!"

Tan Guohua hesitated, and saw that he had already left, so he had to follow.

With the footsteps of the two of them, but after a while, they came to the place of the accident, and the situation they saw made people's hairs stand on end, the two sides of the fight were three men and a woman and a monster with long black and long skin, and the skin exuded a bronze luster, the most terrifying thing about this monster was that face, only skin and bones remained, and the fangs showed an inch long, without eyeballs, and there was a faint ghost fire flashing in the eye sockets.

The weapons used by the three men and one woman are also very special, the old man in the Taoist costume uses a money sword, and the other three use wooden swords, the old man also takes out the talisman from time to time and throws it out, these talismans will spontaneously combust without wind when they get into the monster, some turn into a ball of fire, so that the monster roars in pain, and some flash out of the golden rune light into the monster's body, making the monster's body move slowly, and the monster has rushed out of the encirclement several times, all of which are fixed by this talisman.

Witnessing this scene, if it weren't for what was happening, Tan Guohua would definitely think that this was an illusory dream.

"Senior Yin, my father is Chi Liejun, do you want us to make a move?"

"It turned out to be Chi Xian's nephew, you wait a while, this side will be fine right away!" The old man in the Taoist costume suddenly accepted the money sword, took out a gloomy wood carved gourd, the mouth of the gourd opened, and a thick black mist erupted, turning into a humanoid creature wrapped in a thick fog in a blink of an eye, and its hideous face could be vaguely seen, and a pair of ghost claws were like substance, slightly emitting blue light under the reflection of the moonlight.

Tan Guohua felt a strong cold aura and realized that he had really seen a ghost, and his strong curiosity drove him to check whether the ghost was an entity with the eyes of the sky.

And just when he opened the eye of the sky, the old man in the Taoist costume couldn't help but glance at him, if it wasn't for the fact that it was late at night, everyone's eyes were focused on the monster and the ghost, and he would definitely find the surprise in this person's eyes.

The monster that had rushed out of the siege of two men and one woman, was knocked into the body by the ghost, and then stood in place and trembled, the old man in Taoist costume took out a few talismans, and pasted them on his forehead, shoulders and chest, and then clapped his hands, and a tomb not far away suddenly cracked, and the four people carried a stone coffin out of the coffin, sent the monster into the coffin, and then pasted the talisman.

"I've seen Senior Yin!"

"You're... The second boy of the Chi family?"

"The junior is none other than Chi Yunfei!"

"Well, you were a naughty boy ten years ago, and you have grown so big in a blink of an eye, why did you come here late at night?"

"My father asked me to send an invitation letter to my seniors to participate in the Wanbao Conference on March 3 next year!"

"Hehe, I forgot, this time the Wanbao Conference is organized by your Famous Sword Villa, where is the invitation?"

Chi Yunfei looked embarrassed and told him how he had strayed into the black shop.

"Oh, this is the little hero who saved you?"

Tan Guohua also hurriedly stepped forward to meet him, this is the master of a faction, a congenital-level master.

Yin Tieshan looked him up and down a few times, Tan Guohua felt uncomfortable, and the other party's eyes seemed to be penetrating.

"Not bad, not bad~" seemed to praise him, and then said to Chi Yunfei: "Your invitation letter is when I have received it, the time is not early, you will go back to the sect with me, and tomorrow will pick up the wind and wash the dust for you!"

"Thank you, senior!"

......

On the way, Yin Tieshan made an introduction, and the few people who captured the monster with him were his junior brothers, known as He Shanying, who was known as the ghost shadow, this person was thin and thin, and his face was gloomy, so he was not easy to deal with at first glance.

The middle-aged man at the age of thirty-five or sixteen is named Zhang Tong, who is the eldest disciple of Yin Tieshan, and the one named Yin Xiaohuan is his daughter, who is seventeen or eighteen years old, and she is very beautiful.

A group of people crossed the peak, the manor built by the mountain on the eastern mountainside came into view, the archway of the manor has a few ancient golden characters of the Beipi faction, the courtyard was brightly lit, although it was late at night, there were still many people wearing the same clothes were busy.

"Zhang Tong, you arrange for them to go to the guest room to rest!"

"Yes, Master!"

......

The Beibi faction is strange from the inside out, always giving people a gloomy feeling, Tan Guohua said his thoughts, but Chi Yunfei didn't think so, "You think too much, the Beibi faction was originally a sect that raises corpses and ghosts, although the reputation is not very good, but they haven't done too many evil things, not to mention that our famous sword villa is not something they dare to provoke, it's not early, let's hurry up and rest!"

Tan Guohua slept very unsteadily, he always felt that someone was watching, but he didn't find anything when he used his eye to use the sky.

In the belly of the mountain, this is a tomb inlaid with bluestone wall tiles, the inside is filled with incense mist, in the center is placed a gloomy wooden coffin, and in the place opposite the corridor is placed an offering table, on which there is a gilded statue of the god.

Yin Tieshan put incense on his face humbly, and then said to the statue: "Ancestor, how is this one?"

The idol suddenly emitted a faint golden light, and an illusory figure appeared, "I saw it just now, it is indeed the ancestral aperture, and the root bone is much better than the previous one!"

"Does it apply?"

"Compared to that little guy, my Yuan Shen is still too strong, and it is not easy to find a suitable body in today's world, if it fails again, I don't know what year and month it will take!"

"What does the patriarch mean?"

"Passing on the Sutra of Cultivating the Gods to him, by the way... Give him that easy-to-refine marrow cleansing pill!"

"Yi Jing Cleansing Pill will also be given to him?" Yin Tieshan showed a look of embarrassment on his face, this pill was the Wanbao Conference five years ago, and he exchanged a divine weapon for the one he was going to give to his daughter Yin Xiaohuan.

The phantom behind the statue seemed to see his eyes, "It's just a marrow cleansing pill, I'll show you a place when I go back, there are ancient treasures buried there, and when I can walk the world, refining this kind of pill is just a gesture for me!"

Yin Tieshan was overjoyed when he heard this, his achievements today are all due to the guidance of this patriarch, and he is convinced of the patriarch's ability, "Follow the instructions of the patriarch!"

"Well, go ahead and do it, don't make mistakes!"

"Yes~"
