The prince and concubine of the poor family will catch ghosts

Chapter 230
The shopkeeper was too sad, and he didn't have the heart to tell them about the strange things that happened in this town, so he just hugged Pingping's body and cried all night until dawn, when he saw Lu Xiaoguo and his wife were still here. Only then slowly raised his head. "Let's go, you are not from this town, so don't get involved."

Yesterday, although the shopkeeper was not full of anger, he was not as lifeless as he is now, and I don't know if it was because he hadn't slept all night, his face was extremely pale.

When the other guests heard this, they were so anxious that they didn't want to have breakfast, they went upstairs to pack their bags and left in a hurry. After all, in this life and death, their own lives are more important.

Pingping's screams were heard by everyone in the town, so as soon as the day dawned, many people came to help the door. Only then did Lu Xiaoguo learn from a child that since three years ago, there have been irregular After a while, the sky will get dark earlier, and then it will become like last night, and you can't see your fingers. At this time, demons will come to the town.I heard that he is a devil in the mountains, and he specially picks on the young girls in the town.

Over the past three years, he has killed more than a dozen girls in this town, not to mention other villages.

After the child finished speaking, he seemed to be deeply afraid that he would offend the demon by revealing the information in the town. He became a little scared, and told Lu Xiaoguo not to tell anyone.

Pingping's funeral was very simple, all the procedures were completed throughout the day, and when it got dark, the door of the inn was wide open, it was to prepare for the funeral.

Lu Xiaoguo couldn't help being a little curious, this was the first time I saw someone mourning at night, and weren't they afraid of the night?If he went out so blatantly, wouldn't he not be afraid of that demon?

"Master, should we go and have a look?" Lu Xiaoguo suggested, she also followed the people in this town to help the door today, so she didn't have time to say a few words to Beichen Wuyou.

Now that I have free time, I suggested.

But Beichen Wuyou handed her something, and Lu Xiaoguo took it with a puzzled expression, but it was a faded blue flag with a not-so-clear horse painted on it. "this is?"

"I got it from a young brother today. His new wife was just like Pingping last month. He picked it up next to the corpse." Beichen Wuyou rushed to copy it with a few literate people today. The scriptures were accidentally learned from the young brother over the air, and he simply took the thing from him.

Lu Xiaoguo was a little surprised: "You mean, this matter is human-made? That's why you can keep the objects?" But if it was human-made, it would be even more difficult to escape their eyes, and how to explain this dark night where you can't see your fingers?

Beichen shook his head worry-free, "Do you still remember the voice from last night?"

"Well, you said it was the sound of prayer wheels from the Western Regions." Lu Xiaoguo replied, and subconsciously looked at the horse on the blue flag. The painting method seemed to be a little different from their Tang Dynasty, so she couldn't help guessing: "Is it the wind horse flag of the Western Regions?"

"That's right." Beichen Wuyou nodded in agreement.But Lu Xiaoguo was puzzled, "Does that have anything to do with throwing chayote?" Except that chayote looks like a bergamot, it has no role in warding off disasters at all.

"You also said that the chayote is like a bergamot, and the prayer wheel is in the Western Regions, who is using it?" Beichen Wuyou looked at Lu Xiaoguo who suddenly became stupid in front of him, and couldn't help scratching her face. nose.

"I see." Lu Xiaoguo said a little excitedly while avoiding his approaching action, "So the murderer was a lama from the Western Regions." If their lamas from the Western Regions really came to the territory of Tang Dynasty, how could Beichen Wuyou not know about it.What's more, this place is located in the hinterland of the south of the Yangtze River. If there are lamas from the Western Regions who came here, how could they not have heard of it at all.

Unless, it is not a person who comes.

Thinking about it this way, Lu Xiaoguo seemed to be able to explain the terrifying black night.But the words come back again, well done, why did the monk kill the young woman?

His mind couldn't help being a little messy, and he waved his hands and said, "Forget it, let's go and see where Pingping is buried first, maybe we can find some clues!" As he said, he pulled Beichen Wuyou and chased the funeral procession.

I don't know if it's because it's autumn and the night wind is so cold that even Lu Xiaoguo shivered subconsciously.The street is very quiet at the moment, the paper money all over the floor is blown everywhere by the wind, if you don't pay attention, half of your face will be covered by the paper money.

A gust of wind suddenly blew up, and the paper money all over the sky flew together for a while, blocking their sight, and the wind gradually weakened, and the paper money also fell down, but the mourning team had long since disappeared. Instead, there was a sound of rattling horseshoes.

Not long after, I saw a few vague voices galloping towards them.Presumably, he saw them, so the man on the horse hesitated for a moment, then turned his horse's head and walked towards them.

The leader is a young boy, about twenty years old, wearing a golden crown, dressed in luxurious clothes, his face looks a little calm.He reined in the reins, and the first thing he saw was Lu Xiaoguo who was walking in front, and he was quite surprised for a moment.But soon he regained his composure, "Excuse me, girl, is this place Jiukou Town?"

Lu Xiaoguo opened his mouth, and suddenly realized that he didn't know the name of the town, so he couldn't help turning his head to look at Beichen Wuyou: "Mr.

"Well, this place is Jiukou Town." Beichen Wuyou was still wondering why the funeral procession disappeared in the blink of an eye, so he didn't spend much time on this young man.

At this time, the two who came with the boy also arrived.It is a man and a woman.The female is delicate and cute, and the male is handsome and natural and unrestrained.But I don't know if it's because of the paper money flying all over the street and the gloomy cold wind, so the faces of the two are not very good.

Looking at this charming red dress, the unbelievably beautiful woman, even though she is stunningly beautiful, but her pair of bewitching eyes are always fascinating in this cold and quiet street full of paper money. An illusion of walking in the underworld.Looking at the man behind her, he had a cold aura, as cold as winter, and his face was also as perfect as a heavenly man.

Reason told them that something was wrong with this place, and so was the man and woman wandering the empty streets at night.How can a person look so perfect, this is the best evidence.

Coupled with the constantly flying paper money, it made them feel even more terrified.

In the end, the handsome young man couldn't help but shouted: "Forgive me, you two, we never broke into this place on purpose. When we get back, we will definitely burn gold and silver for you."

As soon as Beichen Wuyou heard this, he understood that they had misunderstood, but his face became a little unhappy, and became more and more gloomy.

He didn't speak, the more it made the hearts of the three feel cold.Pian Lu Xiaoguo looked at Beichen Wuyou seriously and asked: "I don't know if this mountain of gold and silver will be useful if it is burned and sent over." Next time, I must ask the ghost from the underworld.If it is really useful, after the father passes away, I will burn dozens of them for him.

"Eldest senior brother." When the girl heard this, she almost cried and looked at the calm young man in front of her.Her legs were weak, and she tried to kick the horse's belly several times but failed, which showed that her whole body was weak from fright.

Seeing this, Beichen Wuyou looked at Lu Xiaoguo helplessly: "Xiaoguo, don't scare people." Then he raised his head and asked these people: "Who came here just now, but met a funeral procession?"

It was fine if he didn't ask, but the girl screamed when she asked, and shouted frantically: "I just said that I saw a funeral procession, and you clearly said that I saw it wrong. Woohoo, I want Go home, I don't want to stay here, woo woo..."

The other two also didn't care about coaxing her, looked at Beichen Wuyou in horror, and hurriedly asked: "Could it be that you really met the voice delivery team in the underworld?"

"Could it be that you are tired from traveling. First, my husband and I are not ghosts. Second, the funeral procession is for the daughter of the shopkeeper's family in the town. Third, why do you come here at night?" There are no guards in this small town. The city wall is nothing more than a big empty archway at the gate of the town, so even if you come in the middle of the night, you will go straight into the town.It sounds a bit unsafe.

When several people heard her words, it was like the sound of heaven, and the fear on their faces eased, but the young man in the head still looked alert: "If that's the case, why did you two stay on the street at night?" There are no spring flowers and autumn moons, no moonlight lotus ponds here, only this gloomy wind and endless flying paper money.So he didn't fully believe what the woman in red said.

"Let's go to the funeral." Lu Xiaoguo returned confidently.But she didn't lie, she was just blocked by the wind and disappeared from the funeral procession.

Just at this moment, the hurricane suddenly blew up, leaving only the gloomy sound of paper money flying in the air.Everyone tightened their nerves at this moment. In the dark, Lu Xiaoguo felt that something was coming, and immediately focused on sensing the surroundings.

"Save me~"

It was a woman's miserable voice, mixed in the gust of wind, but it was the only one that disappeared.But everyone could hear clearly, the faces of the three on horseback were all pale and covered in cold sweat.

In the silence, the horse suddenly went berserk, and there was a long cry of "hiss~", and the delicate girl fell from above, and fell directly into a pile of paper money.

"Linger!"

"Little Junior Sister!"

The two young men yelled almost at the same time, and jumped off the horse together. As soon as the horse got out of the rein, it seemed to be out of control, and it galloped crazily towards the endless darkness ahead.

The two helped the girl up, but saw the two figures, one red and one white, chasing after their horse.

"What should we do, senior brother?" Seeing this, the handsome young man asked hastily.All the houses on this street do not have lamps, which shows that it is very unlikely for them to knock on the door for lodging at this moment.

The elder brother didn't think for a moment, looking at the extremely fast figures of Lu Xiaoguo and Beichen Wuyou, he said decisively: "Chase!" At least, those two are still human.But if they stay here, who knows what will happen.

The three of them belonged to the family of Jianghu, so they naturally had some lightness skills. In addition, under this kind of fear, their potential was stimulated, and their movements were much faster, and they caught up with the two figures in a short time.

Beichen Wuyou and Lu Xiaoguo were already very fast, but when they arrived in this wild forest, they lost their horses.

"How can there be such a thick fog?" This small wasteland is located in the middle of a mountain. It was very dry in the past, but at this moment, clouds of fog have risen, easily blocking their sight. As far as they can see, But two feet.

"Be careful, I'm afraid that some masters have set up a formation here, and those horses may be trapped in it just now." Beichen reminded without worry, but he didn't know who was behind who led them in.

The three senior brothers and sisters were also in the woods at the moment, fortunately they were fast enough to find Lu Xiaoguo and the others before the mist had fully risen, but even so, in this barren mountain and wild ridge, it was windy and dark night again , How can it be difficult to feel a sense of security.

Lu Xiaoguo has always been good at formations, but after calculating for a while, she still couldn't find the location of the formations. She was inevitably a little frustrated, "Sir, can you freeze all the fog?"

In the eyes of those three people, this was nothing more than a joke, and they didn't take it seriously.At this moment, I only hope to leave this ghost place as soon as dawn.

Unexpectedly, this handsome man who looked like a banished fairy actually answered her words: "I'll try."

The two senior brothers and sisters couldn't help complaining about their senior senior brother for suggesting to come to this place with these two lunatics.

The calm elder brother was also a little impatient, approached Lu Xiaoguo and the two and said, "The two of you have brought a fire book, why don't you build a fire here and leave after dawn."

"No need." Beichen Wuyou's voice was cold, and the scene that followed was even more chilling.

But seeing the mist that was originally floating in this barren forest, it suddenly crystallized and dried up, and then only heard the sound of '唰唰', all fell down, and there was no more mist.

But that little junior sister screamed, and before her two senior brothers asked her, she fell to the ground.

Looking in the direction she was looking at when she screamed, she saw corpses hanging on the intertwined branches in that forest.Some have become skeletons, some are half-rotten, and there is a fresh one, which is Ping Ping who just died a day ago!

"Why is she here?" Wasn't she just carried out for burial?Lu Xiaoguo was shocked, thinking of the cry for help just now, could it be that Pingping's body was taken out and hung up at that time?
For some reason, the senior brother who was supporting his junior sister suddenly had dizzy pupils, let go of the junior sister who was lying in his arms, and walked towards Pingping's body step by step as if he had lost his soul.

"Don't move!" Beichen Wuyou found out that he rushed forward to stop him, and when he looked back at the corpse, Pingping was actually laughing.

The face that had been washed clean by the shopkeeper, at this moment the seven orifices were full of blood stains, but her eyes were clearly smiling, as if full of magic power, making one unable to resist walking towards him.Beichen Wuyou suddenly felt uneasy, as if seeing Lu Xiaoguo waving to him in front of him, he subconsciously raised his footsteps, wanting to walk over, but wondered why that little Guo was wearing white clothes.In his memory, Xiaoguo didn't like to wear plain clothes.So he stopped in his tracks, but that little fruit kept waving at him. For a moment, Beichen Wuyou felt a little confused in his head, subconsciously shook his head, and bit the tip of his tongue.

I don't know if it was the fishy sweetness and the pain on the tip of his tongue that made him react, but he saw that his wife was holding his waist tightly with her arms outstretched, not allowing him to move forward.

Lu Xiaoguo knew what kind of cultivation Beichen Wuyou was, and he was able to get lost because of that corpse, which shows that the things here are more terrifying than anything his family has seen before.He felt a little nervous for no reason, even though he knew that Beichen Wuyou had woken up, he still didn't dare to let him go.

As for the three senior brothers and sisters, the younger junior sister was still in a coma, but the senior brother was temporarily lost because of Beichen Wuyou, so there was no one to stop him, so he walked under the corpses, and now he was looking up at the corpses , with a look of worship on his face.

Why did his junior look at him stupidly, but he didn't dare to step forward, let alone call him.

Lu Xiaoguo could tell at a glance that the two of them would not deal with each other in private, but she couldn't just watch this man die before her eyes, so she immediately picked up the sword dropped by the senior brother on the ground and threw it at his back. Smash it hard.

The elder brother who was devoutly worshiping the corpse on the tree was suddenly hit by Lu Xiaoguo and fell unconscious on the ground.Unexpectedly, when he fell down, it seemed that he angered the thing behind him. Suddenly, the sound of the prayer wheel was everywhere in all directions.

It was not the first time for Lu Xiaoguo and Beichen Wuyou to listen to it, but this time when they heard it, they felt as if they had been invaded by something. From head to toe, every nerve was torn apart.

The sober young man was suffering even more pain all over his body at the moment, but the senior senior brother and junior junior sister who had passed out seemed not to have been corroded.

"Self-proclaimed five senses, dawn is unraveling."

In pain, Lu Xiaoguo felt that she was falling into a sea of ​​blood, boundless, without end or beginning, the whole world seemed to be alone, she kept walking, and a familiar voice came from somewhere. the sound of.She subconsciously obeyed the voice, subdued her five senses, and the surrounding bloody mist dissipated, and her world became a silent black world.

See or hear, don't feel or don't know.She was silent in a world of her own, but her mind was peaceful, and she was no longer in the pain just now.

But in the outside world, the wind is howling, and the dry and corrupt corpses are constantly struggling because of the sound of the prayer wheel. It is not known whether they want to escape from the control of the branches, or they want to run towards the fresh life below.

At night, there was no wind and it was bright, and the sound of tragic whimpers slowly swayed from the deserted forest, and the dead bones seemed to come alive, struggling all the time.Line after line of multicolored wind horse flags came from nowhere, seemingly chaotically intertwined, but formed a formation.
