Day 2.

Yue Buqun couldn't bear Ning Zhongze's repeated inquiries, and rushed to Wubagang with her early in the morning to find Ling Hu Chong. After the two came to Wubagang, they carefully hid in the dense forest, but saw that there was no one around, only the crisp chirping of birds.

Yue Buqun said to Ning Zhongze: "You stay here, I'll go to the grass shed and have a look!" After saying that, his figure flashed, and he quickly entered the grass shed.

There were only five pieces of benches and wine jugs in the grass shed, and there were no other figures, Yue Buqun frowned, and suddenly saw a set of clothes and a pair of boots on the ground, as if there was an invisible transparent person lying on the ground.

He stepped forward to investigate, and saw that the clothes were covered with white powder, and the powder formed the shape of a human body, and he was worried for a while, and said in his heart: "Corpse powder? What a vicious heart! This person, is it Chong'er?" and then shook his head: "It won't be him, he didn't wear this dress that day." ”

Then Yue Buqun came out of the grass hut and beckoned to Ning Zhong: "There is no one here, it seems that Chong'er has already left!"

Ning Zhong moved lightly, walked in front of Yue Buqun, saw his sad face, and said, "You don't have to worry too much, maybe Chong'er has already gone back by herself." ”

Yue Buqun said "um", and was about to go to Ningzhong to go back, and suddenly at a glance, he saw a set of clothes on the ground outside, similar to the situation in the grass shed, and walked forward quickly, observed carefully, and said in his heart: "It's not Chong'er's clothes." Then he sighed and thought, "I can't imagine that two people died here overnight, and Chong'er must have nothing to do with this matter." ”

Ning Zhong saw Yue Buqun in a daze, walked up and patted his vest, and asked, "Senior brother, what's wrong?"

Yue Buqun said: "It's nothing. ”

Ning Zhong looked at the clothes on the ground and said, "You don't have to hide it, although I am a woman, I have also been in the rivers and lakes for so many years, and I haven't seen anything?

Yue Buqun sighed and said, "Yes, but looking at the pretend, it's not Chong'er." ”

Ning Zhong said: "I don't know who this dead person is? Could it be related to Chong'er at this time?"

Yue Buqun didn't answer, walked up and searched for a while in the clothes on the ground, and found a token on the waist of the clothes.

Ning Zhong said: "This Kunlun sect is located in the Western Regions, and it rarely walks around in the Central Plains. Those who can come to the Central Plains must have a certain weight. Now that this person is dead, the Kunlun faction will definitely not give up. ”

Yue Buqun said: "This matter will not end here, and if it is related to him, I will not show mercy." ”

Ning Zhong stopped talking and said, "Let's go back first!"

After the two returned to the ship, they did not see Ling Hu Chong.

Ning Zhong was still unrelenting, and said to Yue Buqun: "We are waiting for a day, if Chong'er doesn't come back tomorrow, let's leave for Huashan again." ”

But on the second day, Ling Hu Chong did not come back after all.

Yue Buqun said to Ning Zhongze: "Don't wait, he won't come back." ”

Ning Zhong said: "Chong'er has no money on him, and if he goes back to Huashan, he won't take the waterway." Let's abandon the ship and go back to the mountains by land, maybe we can meet him on the way!"

Yue Buqun sighed: "Okay, I'll listen to you!"

Then he hired a few wagons to house the gifts he had received in the past few days, and he hurried to the mountain gate with them.

・・・・・・

Halfway through, we came to a small mountain village. This village is very strange, the gate is closed in broad daylight, and there is not even the slightest sound of chickens and dogs, and it is very deserted.

Yue Buqun didn't think much about it, he just wanted to walk through and come to the entrance of another village, and there was a dense forest in front of him. Just as everyone was about to move forward, a thin figure suddenly appeared from the side. When I looked closely, the person who came was a child of about fifteen or sixteen years old, with dark skin, but between his eyebrows, he was very delicate. Dressed in tattered clothes, with strong muscles faintly exposed, he looks like a wild man.

The boy said to the people, "Stop!

Yue Lingshan on the side said with a smile: "My father is the head of the Huashan faction, known as the 'Gentleman's Sword', do you know it?"

The child shook his head and said, "I like to wander in the mountains and wilderness since I was a child, and I don't know much about any head or sect. ”

Yue Lingshan stepped forward, patted the child's shoulder gently, pointed at Yue Buqun and said, "Anyway, my father is very powerful, and you don't have to worry about our safety." If there is really anything ahead, you can tell us first, and we may be able to help you solve it!" Yue Lingshan knew that the strange atmosphere in the village must be related to the danger that this kid said, although he was not afraid, but in line with the purpose of chivalry and righteousness, he didn't mind helping them solve this matter completely.

The kid scratched his head and said, "Are you really powerful?" After a pause, he said, "It just so happens that the village chief invited a few Taoist priests to discuss matters at home. If you don't mind, come with me. ”

After Yue Buqun followed the child to the village chief's house, he saw two people dressed as Taoist priests, and the old man who was talking to them next to him must be the village chief.

As soon as the child entered the door, he grabbed the village chief's sleeve and said, "Village chief, I brought a few martial arts people, maybe I can help!"

This behavior was very unruly, but the village chief didn't mind, and said to the kid with a smile: "Oh, Huwa, who are you brought? This matter is not something that ordinary martial arts people can participate in." ”

Yue Buqun stepped forward and said, "In Xiahua Mountain, Yue Buqun, if you have anything to say, you can tell me." ”

After the village chief and the two Taoist priests heard the words "Yue Buqun", they all turned their heads to look at him, and their expressions showed respect.

The village chief stepped forward, hugged his fists unskillfully, and said, "It turned out to be the "gentleman's sword" Mr. Yue!

This village is called "Longyin Village", and it has been quiet in recent decades, and nothing major has happened. But in a month, the government sent several officials, saying that they were going into the mountains to look for ore, and asked the village to send two villagers who knew the way to go with them.

These people went to prospect with the officials, and the twenty volunteers added up, saying that they would come back in a few days at most, but this time they entered the deep forest, and there was no news for more than ten days. Everyone panicked, and at the strong request of the family members of the villagers who explored the path, they summoned five more people to look for them.

These five people were very cautious, cautious all the way, and they were almost wiped out, and only one person escaped, named Zhu Sanshui.

According to Zhu Sanshui's description, after they found the previous officials and the people who were investigating in the forest, they were just about to step forward to speak, but those people suddenly couldn't help but say, burst out and hurt people, and began to chase them frantically, as if they had lost their minds.

"According to Zhu Sanshui, the previous officials and others were all festering, not like living people, but like legendary zombies, so I invited two Taoist leaders to come and help. The village chief said this, and his face became very ugly.
