Chapter 287
Aoshan City, near the back mountain.

An exquisite small courtyard, occupying a small area, but the layout is very exquisite.

In the center of the courtyard, there is a small pool one and a half feet long and three to four feet wide.

The pool is surrounded by several small and exquisite rockery.

Various flowers, plants and trees are planted in the other corners, and a small gazebo is half-hidden among the trees.

The winding path paved with pebbles connects mountains, water, flowers, trees, gazebos, and several houses in the deep yard.

Lu Tong stepped on the rockery.

Looking at the pool that was stained black by cotton wool, the rockery, gazebo, and pieces of broken flowers and trees that collapsed after the fierce fight.

"Where did the fog monster come from?"

No one else needs to answer, he already knows the answer.

The mountain has already entered the ghost.

Now the ghosts start to come out and kill people.

On the side, Yaoxing said: "In the mountains. Some of the mines dug in the early years probably opened up with the ghost caves, and now there are many fog ghosts and fog monsters hiding."

Yue Shenyu came out of the house and said, "You guys were not prepared for such an obvious mistake."

"So what if we are prepared?"

Rocking Star smiled wryly, and continued: "There are hundreds of abandoned mines, and it is impossible to guard against them."

Lu Tong shook his head, and said slowly: "If you don't fight back, just defend, of course you will be caught."

Rocking Star sighed.

"The two of you are invited to fight back. It has been agreed with Zu and Kong to call monks from various families into the mountains to eliminate ghosts and monsters. Can the two of you fight together?"

Yue Shenyu glanced at Lu Tong, nodded and said: "Yes."

Lu Tong was silent.

This place used to be a real person's cave, and the mountain protection array absorbs the golden energy from all directions, and flows it into the trees to guard against foreign enemies.

Year after year, the roots of the trees in the mountain turned into veins.

Each of the hollowed out mines is full of twists and turns, and the terrain is very complicated.

There are fewer advantages and more disadvantages when going into the hole.

"I'm going to take people out of the city and transport another batch of food."

"Alright, thank you."

……

Outside the city, beast carts got into the gray fog.

A group of martial arts monks with knives and swords gathered around the beast cart, everyone's face was full of vigilance.

Inside one of the carriages.

Lu Tong and Zu Wanyi, like last time, sat on both sides of the window.

But this time, his expression was relaxed, his mandrill arms and tiger claws were hanging by his side very naturally, and he didn't put on a gesture of making a move at any time.

On the window, a glass of red wine wafted a strong aroma.

He looked at the wine glass and said, "Is the time coming soon?"

"what?"

Zu Wanyi was staring at the gray fog, as if he was lost in thought, and also seemed to be sending a message.

Lu Tong asked again: "Is the last wave of siege coming soon?"

Back then in Qianxue Mountain.

When the fog receded, countless fog monsters came in the last wave, almost submerging Qiancao Mountain.If he hadn't hid in the crevice of the mountain, he would probably have died.

Zu Wanyi didn't answer, but asked instead: "Brother brought many people out?"

"Ok?"

He raised his eyelids, and raised some vigilance in his heart.

This time when I went out of the city, the car was not empty, but many old people, women, and children were brought with me.

Most of them are relatives and close friends of Wuguan.

Zu Wanyi looked into the distance again, and said, "There is a deal, ten lives for one fog ghost."

"No."

Lu Tong refused straight away, closed his eyes slowly, opened them again the next moment and said, "Something went wrong, I'll kill you first."

"No, no, it's not the deal I proposed."

Zu Wanyi muttered something in a low voice, picked up the wine glass on the window and drank it in one gulp.

Fangshi is still where it was last time.

The convoy arrives.

A group of people stepped out of the carriage, ready to find a place to stay.

Du Zhixing carried a bunch of packages, big and small, and said, "Prince Immortal, they don't dare to disturb you, so they asked me to deliver them."

He turned to look.

Some people stood not far away and bowed to salute.

Lu Tong nodded and took the package.

"Where are they going?"

"Most people are planning to go to the nearby Huiyan City, some people want to stay here, and some people don't know much about it."

"Good."

He opens a package.

A three-inch high fairy jade carving, white and green, the jade is very delicate, with a layer of oily luster on the surface.

Very common jade ornaments.

Lu Tong rubbed it a few times, accepted the jade carving, and then opened other packages.

Jade carvings, strange stones, ancient books, family spells...

Some bits and pieces are worthless and useless, but the affection behind them is very precious.

He accepted them one by one and said, "Let's go, find a place to eat."

Zu Wanyi looked at Lu Tong's back, then at the crowd in the distance, shook his head and followed quickly.

Compared with last time, the market has become more lively in just a few days.

Street stalls, teahouses, taverns, blacksmith shops, elixir shops, inns, restaurants...

Pass a restaurant.

Lu Tong took two steps, stopped suddenly, and looked back to the restaurant door.

There is a wooden cart outside the door.

On the wooden board on the front of the cart, there are two big characters "She Porridge" and four small characters "Dahe Grain Line" next to it.

Zu Wanyi turned his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"

"fine."

……

Wind in the building.

The two ordered a table of wine and food.

Lu Tong picked up his teacup.

Unconsciously, he thought of Dahe Grain Company again. After thinking for a while, he slowly said: "I know a big grain merchant, which is very strange."

"Dahe grain business?"

"Correct."

He was a little surprised, he didn't expect Zu Wanyi to be so alert.It's just that I paid a little attention when I passed by, and I actually wrote it down.

"Why is it strange?"

Zu Wanyi was very curious and wanted to find out everything related to Lu Tong.

Lu Tong took a sip of tea and put down his cup.

"When it was foggy back then, not only did this person not take the opportunity to increase the price, but he even gave out porridge for free in the city."

"If you don't want to make a profit, you can draw a name. If you don't want a name, there must be other plans in the dark."

He nodded and said, "This person's reputation is indeed very good."

Zu Wanyi snorted, and said in a low voice: "Most people who want to be possessed by ghosts have a good reputation."

Lu Tong was silent.

Yusu and Mengdahe all operate grain stores.One is very greedy for money, the other is just the opposite.

They look completely different, but I always feel that the two are somewhat similar.

"This person may have practiced evil methods."

"Want a ghost?"

His eyes widened, and he said, "You think so too?"

Zu Wanyi squeezed the teacup, smelled it but didn't pick it up, and turned it around in his hand.

"Wherever there has been fog, the most powerful and wealthy people in the city must have desire ghosts hidden among them or their people."

He couldn't help but look serious.

There has been fog in Yunying City, and more than once.

the next day.

After one night of shopping, the storage bags, storage magic weapons, and many compartments in the fleet were all filled.

before departure.

Lu Tong found Du Zhixing and said, "Go and ask, have those people had any contact with Dahe Grain Company yesterday."

"it is good."

When they first arrived in a strange place, the crowd hadn't dispersed yet, they all stayed together.

Less than a quarter of an hour before and after.

Du Zhixing returned quickly, and said with a smile, "Dahe Foodstuffs donated porridge for free, and many people drank it. There are two lucky ones who were favored by the grainline, so they don't have to worry about food and drink in the future."

His heart sank.

Here too.

Over the years, how many people did Meng Dahe take away?

"Go and tell them, if you don't want to die, don't touch Dahe Food Company."

Du Zhixing was shocked.

"Xianchang, is the porridge poisonous?"

Lu Tong was going to explain a little bit, but before he spoke, he changed his mind and nodded, "It's fine to drink once, but if you drink too much, you will be poisoned and addicted."

To be honest, it's hard to be convinced.

Moreover, telling the truth is laborious and laborious, it is better to spread a few rumors.

Du Zhixing was in a hurry, he didn't have the time to ask any more questions, so he immediately flew into the sky and flew out quickly.

……

Inside Aoshan City.

Rocking Star looked very tired, and handed over a storage bag.

"This is 3 taels."

Lu Tong reached out to take it, but didn't put it away, and weighed it up and down in his palm.

Rocking Star hurriedly explained: "Most people have no money. A large part of this batch of food will be given away for free."

He nodded, accepted the storage bag, and asked, "Have you entered the mountain?"

"Yesterday and today, I went there twice."

"how?"

Rocking Star sighed heavily, and said, "I have gained a little, but unfortunately the gain outweighs the loss."

"what happened?"

"A young master of the Kong family died."

Lu Tong's pupils shrank, and a name popped up in his mind instantly.

The holes are also micro.

The young master of the Kong family and the husband of Zu Wanxi.

The words Yugui whispered in his ear at the beginning also popped up again: "Seduce, Zu Wanxi. Kill, Kong Yewei. Burial, Zu Wanxi, steal the unicorn."

"Which young master?"

"The hole is also small."

He exhaled lightly, and murmured: "It's really...unpredictable."

The two separate.

Lu Tong caught up with the carriage driven by Huadao, landed on the shaft, and got straight into the carriage.

"What did you do?"

Zu Wanyi was holding the ledger, calculating how much money he could get this time, and asked doubtfully, "What's the matter?"

"Kong is also slightly dead."

Zu Wanyi frowned, put away the ledger, and said, "It's so fast."

"It's really you."

He sat down beside him.

Zu Wanyi shook his head and said: "It has nothing to do with me. There is an inner ghost in the Confucius Mansion, which has killed dozens of people, and Kong Yewei is just one of them."

"Not exposed yet?"

"No."

Lu Tong was secretly startled.

To kill dozens of people, but still get out of the body, the method is a bit powerful.

He thought for a while, then his heart suddenly moved, he looked at Zu Wanyi and asked: "Are you reminding me, who is the ghost?"

In the Confucian mansion, there are not many people who have the strength to kill dozens of people.As long as you look hard, it shouldn't be hard to find.

Zu Wanyi blinked his eyes, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

"Brother, you guessed it yourself. If you kill the wrong person, don't blame me."

The two stared at each other for a moment.

Lu Tong slowly withdrew his gaze and said, "I've fallen, and you can't escape either."

"Then...brother, be careful."

……

A round table filled with wine and dishes.

Thin noodles with snow silk in old soup, steamed fish with Dan Qi, tender bamboo shoots poured in Dan juice...

Lu Tong sat at the table.

After taking a bite of fish, the mouth is filled with the aroma of grass and trees.

The food still tastes the same, but the people have become alienated.

Yue Shenyu took two sips, put down his chopsticks, took a sip of tea, and asked: "Junior brother came here specially, isn't it for a meal?"

He smiled and said, "Of course not."

"what's up?"

Yue Shenyu was very afraid.

Getting along with a ghost day and night, no matter how good a person is, will turn bad, not to mention that this junior is cruel and greedy.

Lu Tong picked up the fine noodles with one chopstick, ate it in one big bite, put down his chopsticks, and chewed for a while.

"Desire ghost."

Yue Shenyu frowned, staring at Lu Tong's left hand.

"It's not it." He waved his left hand, "The other ghost, hidden in Confucius' mansion, has already killed dozens of people, and Kong Yewei was also killed by it."

"how do you know."

Lu Tong raised his left hand again.

Yue Shenyu worshiped the sect since he was a child, and knew the treachery of Yugui very well, he was very suspicious in his heart, and asked cautiously: "What evidence is there?"

He picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, rinsed his mouth, and swallowed it again.

"No evidence."

"Junior brother, be careful of falling into the trap of the ghost."

Yue Shenyu's expression fluctuated.

Some wondered whether it was Lu Tong himself or the desire ghost in his hand who was sitting in front of him and talking.

Lu Tong smiled and said, "Even if it's a trap, it's worth a try. This is a great achievement, if the senior sister wants it, I can give it up."

"No need."

Yue Shenyu directly shook his head and refused.

For ghosts, the more you take, the more you lose.When you get enough, it's time to pay for your life.

He was very surprised.

I thought Yue Shenyu would do a great job, so I took this opportunity to exchange some wind control skills.

Unexpectedly, there was no interest.

"Senior Sister is unwilling to make a move?"

"No. It's about the Kong family. Let's ask Senior Brother Qianfeng before making a decision. How about it?"

"it is good."

……

A few days passed.

At the foot of the right mountain.

Under a steep rock wall, there is a large hole with a diameter of two feet at the bottom. The hole is surrounded by black stones and white stones to form a yin and yang fish pattern.

Inside the cave, the Mausoleum of the Confucian family ancestors.

Outside the cave, there is a spirit shed.

Kong Yewei was about to be buried, and people of all sizes in Aoshan City almost occupied the open space in front of the cliff.

Lu Tong stood in the crowd, looking around, back and forth, left and right.

Inside the coffin.

A woman in mourning robes sat kneeling aside.

Phoenix eyes, thick eyebrows.

It's a bit like Zu Wanyi, less masculine and more feminine.

The third child of the ancestor's family, Zu Wanxi.

At this moment, his expression was full of sadness.

He took a serious look, and was a little uncertain whether Zu Wanxi had obtained the demon transformation spell while guarding the spirit.

After a while, he retracted his gaze and turned to look to the left.

A sturdy man with broad shoulders and a thick back.

Sword eyebrows, eagle eyes.

One of the leaders of the Confucian guards, Ma Shengding.

"boom!"

A fire phoenix flew out and got into the coffin, and there was a burst of crying around.

After a while, the coffin was lifted and sent into the cave.

Several female cultivators in mourning robes followed and walked towards the cave, and Zu Wanxi was among them.

The crying started quickly and ended quickly.

A group of people entered the cave, and the crying fell immediately. The crowd chatted in twos and threes, and they were going to eat together.

"Wait everyone!"

An old man with white beard stood up and shouted loudly: "Qianfeng Xianzhang, who captured Qizong, has something to say."

Qianfeng flew into the air.

He and Lu Tong looked at each other and shouted: "Ma Shengding!"

Ma Shengding's expression changed.

"exist!"

Qianfeng looked at it for two breaths, then said slowly:

"Ma Shengding."

"On February [-], I took thirteen monks and five mountain apes out of the city. More than half of the monks under my command were killed or injured, and none of the mountain apes survived."

"On February [-]th, I took eight monks out of the city, and more than half of the monks under my command were killed or injured."

"On February [-]th, I took seventeen monks out of the city, and none of the monks under my command survived."

"On March [-], I went out of the city with three comrades, and only one of the three survived."

"March [-]th..."

"On April [-]th, following Kong Yewei into the mountain, Kong Yewei encountered an accident."

"Do you have something to say?"

Ma Shengding looked left and right, gritted his teeth and said, "I'm the one who hurt the young master!"

"Still pretending to be stupid."

Qianfeng sneered and shouted: "Lu Tong!"

"exist!"

Lu Tong took a step, and a large area was instantly emptied around him.

"Try his real body."

"Yes!"
