Chapter Ninety-Nine: Catching Ghosts (I)

Phoenix Ridge, in the southwest of Longjiazhai, is located between the Yunnan-Guizhou Mountains, which is already out of the boundary of Hunan. According to Shi Laosan, there are more mature seedlings in Fenghuangling, but there are also a lot of seedlings, because there are dozens of seedling villages in the area of Fenghuangling, the population is relatively dense. Most of the ripe seedlings of the five Han surnames also live in the area of Fenghuangling. Many of the ripe seedlings also follow the lifestyle of the Han people.

However, the Daqing Festival, worship and other activities still follow the customs of Miao Village.

According to this, about more than 100 miles, I didn't expect Long Po to leave Phoenix Ridge, but to go to Jiwei Mountain, which is a hundred miles away, to live in seclusion. It's really hard for her. Her junior sister is also really vicious, and she poisoned her senior sister for the sake of a false name of a big sacrifice. It's a pity that I can't deal with her, otherwise I would have promised to help Long Po.

We walked for more than ten days, but because the mountain road was difficult and Master didn't want to waste time, if we hadn't walked over the mountains and mountains, we probably wouldn't have been able to reach the Phoenix Ridge area in ten days.

Of course, we have another equally important matter, that is, the Gu poison on my body, since the last time I was Gu by Long Po to now, ten days have passed, that is to say, I still have ten days before the first Gu poison, in order to find that Ma Xian Po as soon as possible, and find a way to get a bowl of raw blood from her to relieve my Gu, we can be regarded as a day and night rush.

But that's easier said than done, and I don't know how hard it will be to actually do it. A dragon woman is so powerful, so now as a great sacrifice in the Phoenix Ridge area, Ma Xian Mother-in-law will definitely not be weak, how can the raw blood on her body be taken down casually? What's more, taking a bowl of raw blood from her is tantamount to abolishing her Taoism, how can she agree?

Unless you rush to Phoenix Ridge in advance and understand the actual situation first, you don't know how to start.

However, we are not without a little way, at least we can find Shi Lan, the apprentice of Long Po, presumably with the help of that Shi Lan, the master will definitely be able to think of a way to solve the Gu for me.

But how to find Shi Lan, what she looks like now, where her family lives, Long Po didn't say, and we couldn't find it, so we really didn't have much time.

"Master, we have been on the road for ten days in a row, and we finally found out all the way to Phoenix Ridge in front, but there are so many Miao villages, how can we find a woman named Shi Lan from inside?" I looked blankly at the mountains in the distance and said bitterly.

The master glanced up and sighed lightly: "I can only find it slowly, that Long Po's Gu technique is not simple, and there was a chance to be a great sacrifice back then, so her apprentice will definitely not be bad, and it must also have some reputation in the Phoenix Ridge area, let's inquire more, it should not be difficult to find." In the past ten days, we have been walking without sleep, and we are really tired. Since Phoenix Ridge is close at hand, Ergou, then we will find a nearby village or village tonight to spend the night, and by the way, inquire about the whereabouts of Shi Lan, and it will not be too late to enter Phoenix Ridge tomorrow! ”

I nodded again and again: "Master, you can be regarded as saying something that I have listened to, I am tired these days, and I have to find a place to rest and get something to eat tonight!" ”

Master glared at me angrily and said, "Didn't you rush so hard for your master to help you detoxify your Gu poison?" You bastard boy, you just don't know what's wrong! ”

I grinned and said, "Knowing that your old man is for my good, isn't it just a joke, your old man will definitely not be really angry, will you?" After I finished speaking, I saw that the master shook his head helplessly, wiped a handful of sweat, and found a nearby place to sit down and rest.

Seeing that Master was so tired, I couldn't bear it, so I immediately volunteered and said, "Master, your old man is resting, I'm looking around now to see if there is any water I can drink for your old man to get some back." ”

"Hmm." Master pursed his mouth and swallowed his saliva, nodded and said, "You must remember not to drink the stagnant water on the ground, the stagnant water is easy to be infected with the toxins of the surrounding poisons, try to find the living water of the mountain spring to drink!" ”

I said yes and ran happily into the mountains to find water, but in the middle of the night, the surrounding vegetation was so lush that those who lifted their feet and landed on them had to be careful, in case I stepped on something that bited, I didn't find the water, and my life might be in it. It seems that the further south you go, the more lush the vegetation becomes, and the northern part of the country must be withered by now. No wonder, winter has arrived.

"Click!"

Just thinking about it, I felt that I inexplicably stepped on a piece of dead wood under my feet, and looked down curiously. Every time it's a matter of curiosity, this look instantly scared me into a cold sweat, only to see that what I just stepped on was not a dead branch, but a ...... It's a human bone. My legs trembled and I retreated, even if there was water on this side, I didn't plan to look for it again, I would choose the other side to find it.

Encountering such an unfortunate thing in the middle of the night really made me a little depressed.

But just when I was about to turn around, I inexplicably saw a green light, like a green fire, swaying back and forth in the messy grass and trees in front of me, and soon flashed towards the front, I was subconsciously startled, the green fire was clearly a ghost fire! But this ghost fire doesn't stay and wander honestly in the mass graveyard, why did he suddenly run away?!

I hurried in the direction of the ghostly fire, and not far away, I was stunned to see a small village not far away. In the cold moonlight, the village appeared sparsely in front of my eyes, and the ghost fire just now clearly rushed into the village.

Seeing this, I stopped chasing after me, and hurriedly turned around and ran back to Master, and said hurriedly, "Master! I saw a ghostly fire rushing towards the village in front of me! Isn't it weird that you say?! ”

When the master heard this, he frowned and said, "The ghost fire should have been wandering around the tomb, how could it run into the village?" That's not right, Ergou, let's go to that village and take a look, maybe we can catch a demon! ”

As soon as I heard that it was an evil ghost, I couldn't help but tremble in my heart, just now it was fortunate that the ghost fire didn't turn around and come to me, otherwise I would have been dumbfounded. Master said that if the ghost fire wanders around the tomb, it is fine, but if the ghost fire runs restlessly into the village or where there are people, then it means that something will definitely happen, and the matter is not small!

We were going to stop and rest, but because of the unexpected appearance of a ghost fire, we had to go to the village not far away to catch ghosts.

As soon as we reached the village, we heard a frenzied barking of dogs. I frowned and said, "Master, you see that we haven't entered the village yet, and the dogs in the village are already boiling, which means that those dogs are not barking at us, but ...... There is another secret! ”

"What's the secret?" Master glared at me and said, "If you catch ghosts, you will catch ghosts, where is there so much nonsense!" We hurried into the village to find out whose yard the ghost fire ran into, and found it, if it was a ghost, it would be killed on the spot! ”

Strange to say, when Master and I walked into this village, we only heard the barking of dogs, and we didn't see any people from every house lighting up the lights and coming out to see what was going on. It seemed that the dogs in the whole village were boiling, and they didn't care what was going on. All the houses are extremely quiet. But after thinking about it, there may be another reason, that is, these villagers are avoiding trouble, and most of the reasons for avoiding disaster should be that they are afraid of not being able to manage it or afraid of getting into trouble!

As soon as I walked around, Master suddenly rushed towards a house in the northeast corner of the village, and I frowned, the dog near the house seemed to bark even louder, and it was probably something happened to that house. I hurried to catch up with Master, but as soon as Master arrived at the door, he jumped into someone's courtyard without saying anything. I smacked my lips, Master caught a ghost and ran too fast, right?!

I was still practicing with weights, I couldn't get up, I knocked on the door and felt that I was wasting time, so I simply climbed the courtyard wall of this house, and when I was about to climb the courtyard wall, I suddenly heard a woman's screams from the yard, and there was a rough and thick man's voice, heavy impact sound, scuffle sound, it seemed to explain a problem, this family is engaged in domestic violence!

But the two of them are fighting, what is the master running in for?!
