In the middle of the night, in the wilderness, it was still raining, and there was a woman with a cloak hiding in the dark melon nunnery crying.

Zhou Fengchen was slightly stunned, then turned to look to the side, Yuan Zhi was sick like this, he really didn't have any other mood, whether it was a ghost or a person, everyone went their own way.

There was a small wooden bed in the melon nunnery, and the woman was sitting there crying, so he put the Yuanzhi monk here, covered his clothes tightly, and then rubbed the acupoints for him to perform the "Three Talents Return to the Yuan Gong" to keep warm, while thinking about his thoughts.

He recalled the cause of Monk Yuanzhi's injury last year, first of all, a dead man was possessed by a river demon and returned to the yang, and ate his wife in the middle of the night, and then Monk Yuanzhi taught the deceased's son a spell of needle pricking out of the soul and killed the river demon, and as a result, he sneaked to the door to seek revenge on Monk Yuanzhi.

The first thing that appeared was a girl, and then the Yuan Zhi monk ran away and met a woman delivering water, and then a general on horseback appeared, and it was this general who shot an arrow into the Yuan Zhi monk's gut, and the current wound appeared.

Then the top priority now is to find this general, kill him, or force him to lift the resentment curse of the Yuan Zhi monk.

But where is this general? Could it be a wandering demon? Will there be a nest of sneaky?

Zhou Fengchen shook his head, it seems that it is useless to be anxious about this matter now, you have to save the life of the Yuanzhi monk first, and then think about it carefully.

At this time, he looked up coldly and found that the woman looked over in a daze, her long hair covering her face, and she couldn't see her appearance clearly.

"Who are you?" The woman seemed to be frightened, and her voice trembled a little.

Zhou Fengchen said casually: "I'm in a hurry to go at night!"

The woman seemed relieved, "Scared me to death." ”

Zhou Fengchen didn't speak.

The woman leaned in and asked curiously, "Are you ...... Aren't you afraid? ”

Zhou Fengchen sneered, "What am I afraid of?" ”

The woman's voice was a little low, "It's so dark, it's easy to meet ghosts in the wilderness." ”

Zhou Fengchen nodded, "Well, then what?" ”

"And then......" The woman was stunned, and after a moment her tone changed, and asked, "Is your friend sick?"

"I'm sick." Zhou Fengchen said.

The woman sighed faintly, "It's all poor people, like me, I was kicked out by my mother-in-law, I have no place to go, I am cold and hungry, and I miss my children......"

The woman chattered a lot, but Zhou Fengchen didn't listen to it at all, looking at the rainy night outside.

After a while, the rain lightened a little, and the woman seemed to feel bored herself, so she stopped chattering and walked out of the melon hermitage.

Zhou Fengchen took out a cigarette and lit one, took two puffs, and then stuffed it into the mouth of the monk Yuanzhi, and said: "The bad luck of our brothers is estimated to have not passed, if you have the consciousness, hold it first, you can rest assured, if you don't kill that general, Lao Tzu will cultivate for nineteen years."

Monk Yuanzhi didn't react at all, his mouth drooped, the cigarette butt almost fell off, Zhou Fengchen smiled bitterly and then took the cigarette butt and smoked it himself.

After a while, the woman suddenly went and returned, holding a rice bowl in her hand, and sat aside with a smile, "Big brother, I have a bowl of porridge here, it has just been served from home, and it is still hot, you and your friends can eat some." ”

How inconsistent is this? Zhou Fengchen glanced at her, only to see her hair tied up with a headband, revealing a white face, a pair of small eyeballs dripping and turning, looking disgusting, shaking her head, "I'm full, I'm not hungry, thank you!" ”

The woman was very disappointed, put the bowl aside, and after a while, she said worriedly: "Look at this wilderness, the weather is cold, your friend is so sick, what should I do if it gets worse?" Why don't you go to my house and sit down? ”

This reminded Zhou Fengchen, looked outside, the rain was a little lighter, and said: "Forget about your family, it's inconvenient, do you know where Lao Zao Village is?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, "Ah, Lao Zao Village, I know." ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction, "There's a path over there, just go to the end." ”

I don't know if what this woman said can be trusted, anyway, Zhou Fengchen was also dizzy and didn't know where to go, so after thinking about it, let's go and see it first.

Shouldering the Yuanzhi monk, wrapping his coat tightly, he walked out of the nunnery, and looked in the direction of the woman's fingers, and sure enough, there was a path.

The road is walking, and there will always be people in the end, he said in his heart, and he walked along the path.

The path is very desolate, surrounded by weeds, and I can't see where the front is, so I walked for more than half an hour with a shallow foot, and there was a humming sound in front of me, which came in the dark and rainy night, which was particularly harsh.

Zhou Fengchen frowned, and when he got closer, he found that there was a fork in the road in front of him, and an old lady with silver hair on the road walked over, humming while walking, facing the night, and found that she seemed to be wearing a flower cloth shroud, which looked quite crazy.

Zhou Fengchen chuckled and shook his head, didn't even bother to open the eye of heaven to take a look, and walked forward on his own.

As soon as she reached the fork in the road, the old lady suddenly raised her head and shouted, "Where are you going, young man?"

Zhou Fengchen was too lazy to take care of it.

The old lady shouted again: "Stop! Stop! ”

Zhou Fengchen looked back in surprise and asked, "What do you mean?"

The old lady's old face was full of wrinkles and looked very white, and she raised her crutches and pointed in the direction where Zhou Fengchen went, "Do you know where it is?" ”

"I don't know." Zhou Fengchen said.

The old lady sighed, "Confused! You can't go there! ”

Zhou Fengchen asked, "Why can't you go?"

The old lady asked rhetorically, "Tell me, did you just meet a woman with a white face?"

Zhou Fengchen nodded, "Yes!" ”

The old lady leaned her crutches, "Oops! That woman is a hanged ghost, she quarreled with her mother-in-law before her death, she couldn't think of it, she ran to the locust tree over there and hanged herself, the ghost is not gone, she specializes in confusing people who walk at night, she doesn't know how many people have been killed, this road is the tree at the end, if you dare to go, you will definitely be eaten by her! ”

Zhou Fengchen felt funny and asked, "Then where should I go?"

The old lady was stunned, "How do I know where you should go?" You can't go there anyway! ”

Zhou Fengchen nodded and asked, "What if I want to go to Lao Zao Village?"

"Old Zao Village?" The old lady was stunned for a moment, and pointed behind her, "Follow this road to the end." ”

Zhou Fengchen raised his eyes to look at both sides, and found that there was a faint light coming from the end of the road behind the old lady, maybe it was credible, so he said thank you, turned around and walked over.

When passing by the old lady, the old lady suddenly sighed, "Young man, I also saved your life, went to the village, can you do me a favor?" ”

Zhou Fengchen was stunned for a moment, "You say! ”

The old lady said, "My two unsuccessful sons will have to rummage through my room tomorrow to find money, and you can tell them that I have donated the money to the school, don't toss it."

This is weird, who is her son, how can Zhou Fengchen know where to go? However, Zhou Fengchen still nodded, "Hmm! No problem. ”

The old lady smiled with satisfaction, and walked forward with a hum, and was out of sight in the blink of an eye.

Zhou Fengchen carried the monk Yuanzhi and ran for more than an hour, and when it was dawning, a small village appeared in front of him, and an old man at the head of the village was getting up early to feed the cows.
