Chapter 66

Another few days.

One day, Zhang Heng was meditating on the mountain when he heard the reprimand of whips beating animals from a distance.

When I opened my eyes, I saw a carriage driving in the distance, and it was coming this way.

"strangeness!"

Zhang Heng had a scrutiny in his eyes.

He had been on Plague Hill for months, and he had never seen anyone come this way.

On the one hand, the inaccessibility of people, on the other hand, the reputation of Plague Mountain is not very good.

"Master!"

The carriage arrived at the foot of the mountain, and a middle-aged man in a leather hat ran up the mountain anxiously.

At first, Zhang Heng only felt that the person was a little familiar.

When he got close, Zhang Heng remembered who this was, and said in surprise, "Are you the owner of Liusha Town Inn?
"The Daoist has a good memory, it's me."

When the innkeeper saw Zhang Heng recognized him, he could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Zhang Heng felt very strange and asked, "Why are you here?"

The shopkeeper of the inn said with a sad face: "Master Wuxin told me before going down the mountain that I shouldn't have disturbed you about your cultivating on the Plague Mountain, but something happened in the town, and I don't know."

As soon as Zhang Heng heard this, his face became serious: "Tell me slowly, what happened?"

soon.

Under the narration of the innkeeper, Zhang Heng figured out the ins and outs.

The cause is a group of rogues. I don't know where to get the news that there is a general's tomb in the mountains near Liusha Town, and a Qing Dynasty general who died here in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties is buried there.

There is no way to know if the news is true or not.

Anyway, a few pranksters believed it, and a group of three or five people entered the mountain, and they never came back.

It was not until yesterday that Poppy's family went into the mountain to look for it and found a robbery hole on Beiwang Mountain.

This robbery cave leads directly into the belly of the mountain, and inside, there is a faint roar, and it sounds wrong.

"The roar in the cave!"

Zhang Heng frowned slightly and whispered, "Did you encounter a zombie?"

The innkeeper replied tremblingly: "We don't know either. The goddess who accompanied him went in and took a look. After a while, he heard a scream, and then there was no movement."

"We didn't dare to explore any more, so we could only block the entrance of the cave with stones. After going back and thinking about it, we thought of you. You must be someone with great ability when you travel south and north."

Zhang Heng didn't answer this, just thought about it: "Even the goddess has been folded in. According to you, it must be a zombie. Fortunately, you didn't go in again, otherwise it would be useless to enter many people."

"Master."

The shopkeeper's face was tangled: "To be honest, one of this group of pranksters is my nephew, and I am just such a male in Liu's family. Please do me a favor and come down the mountain with me. How much does it cost me? are willing to give.”

heard.

Zhang Heng was lost in thought.

He is not very afraid of zombies, because zombies are tangible things, unlike ghosts, which are invisible.

Tangible things must be restrained by physics. In fact, he doesn't need to go down the mountain. These people can find some explosives and blow up the grave.

Just considering that he is afraid of any emergency, Zhang Heng thought about it and said, "If you had come earlier, I might not have followed you down the mountain, and at most I will give you a way to get rid of you."

After he finished speaking, he said, "The timing of your arrival is very good."

Earlier, the paper ghost did not recover, and Zhang Heng had one less card.

As the saying goes, motion is worse than silence. In the absence of trump cards, it may be difficult for him to go down the mountain.

It’s different in the past.

The paper ghost has recovered, and Zhang Heng's confidence has also strengthened.

In addition, it is to deal with zombies, and it is not impossible to go down the mountain.

After all, there are paper ghosts, and the idle black zombie can't help him. Unless he encounters the kind of grandpa Ren who has sucked the blood of his closest relatives, or the royal zombies escorted by Uncle Qianhe, he can handle it.

"Master, let's go down the mountain now."

Seeing that Zhang Heng did not refuse, shopkeeper Liu was in high spirits.

"No rush, no rush."

Although Zhang Heng is not afraid of zombies and asks himself if he can deal with it, he will not despise it: "You go to wait for me in the carriage first, I have to prepare one or two, so don't be sloppy."

"Thank you sir."

Shopkeeper Liu walked down the mountain three times and turned back.

After half an hour.

Zhang Heng came down with two big boxes.

The two large boxes, each about the size of a large suitcase, looked quite heavy.

Seeing what was in his hand, Shopkeeper Liu couldn't help but ask, "Master, what's in here?"

"You think I'm going to drink with you, don't prepare much, what if the meat buns beat the dog?"

Zhang Heng has a hole card.

But he is not someone who acts recklessly on the basis of his trump card, and of course there is no shortage of preparations.

It is not even an exaggeration to say that with these two boxes of him, it is not necessary to use paper ghosts to shoot.

"Master, please in the car, please in the car."

Shopkeeper Liu nodded and bowed his head.

Zhang Heng didn't bother with him, went to one of the carriages, touched the heater on the carriage, it was okay, it was hot.

Crunch, crunch.
Because of the heavy snow that just fell a few days ago, the road is not very easy to walk.

It wasn't until the afternoon that the carriage returned to Liusha Town and stopped at the door of Shopkeeper Liu's restaurant.

"father."

As soon as the carriage arrived, a girl was greeted in the restaurant.

She wears white fox fur with a tear mole at the corner of her eye, much like Guo Xiang in the ancient principal's version of The Condor Heroes.

"This is my daughter Liu Qi. I used to study outside, but now the education world is a little uneasy, so I called her back."

Shopkeeper Liu introduced the girl to Zhang Heng.

Zhang Heng nodded slightly.

He has seen many beautiful girls. Thinking back then, he was also a VIP person in the domestic area, and he had seen big scenes.

What a pure school girl, a beautiful teacher, a quiet nurse, he has seen so many times that he is now blind and can't see who is beautiful at all.

"Master, when are we leaving?"

Shopkeeper Liu was in a hurry.

"I'm afraid it won't work today."

Zhang Heng looked at the sun above his head, and at the pocket watch in his pocket: "It's past two o'clock in the afternoon, and now it's winter again. It gets dark very early, and it gets dark at five or six o'clock in the north."

"Go now. It is estimated that you can only arrive after dark. That thing is incredible at night, and the risk factor is too high."

Zhang Heng put away the pocket watch and asked again, "How many days have those people been missing, two days or three days?"

Shopkeeper Liu replied, "We found out that something was wrong yesterday, and counting the time we entered the mountain, it's about three days."

"Three days?"

"A little more, it counts as four days."

Zhang Heng pondered in his heart, and whispered: "People can live for three days without drinking water, and seven days without food. Since they entered the mountain to rob tombs, it is impossible not to bring water and food. If they died, a few days ago Damn it, if you don't die, it won't be a big problem to hold on for another day."

When shopkeeper Liu heard this, he was stunned: "Daoist, this can't be done."

Zhang Heng raised his brows: "I'm not trying to die, but I want to act prudently."

"Instead of taking you there now, finding a robbery hole on the mountain, and then coming back when it's dark, it's better not to go today, get up at five tomorrow morning, and go down the mountain when the sky is bright, save people alive, save time when you die, and save time. Save effort."

"This this"

Shopkeeper Liu was at a loss for words, and was speechless in a hurry.

Liu Qi, who was on the side, couldn't help pulling the shopkeeper Liu's arm, and complained in a low voice, "Father, I advised you not to hire a Taoist priest. What is the age now, you must believe in science."

"If you want me to tell me, cousin, they may have descended into the cemetery, suffocated due to lack of oxygen, or encountered a trap and were trapped. They are waiting for us to rescue them. Wait for tomorrow, why not wait for next year?"

Zhang Heng remained silent.

If shopkeeper Liu doesn't agree, he will turn around and leave. These people should be clever.

After all, he is not afraid of zombies, but he has never underestimated them.

Anyone who thinks about catching zombies at night must have not woken up. Zhang Heng wouldn't mess around with this kind of thing.

"Master, I listen to you, tomorrow is tomorrow."

Shopkeeper Liu looked at Zhang Heng and then at his daughter, but he didn't listen to her after all.

After all, although Zhang Heng said it was rude, but thinking about it carefully, his worries might not be unreasonable.

According to ancient legends, dirty things will be fierce at night.

Go now, arrive at night, what to do in case of danger, you must know that they are exploring ancient tombs, not brothels.
