In the dim sky, there were occasionally one or two black shadows on the woods, crows, or night owls, the old forest was like a big black hole, and the vines and branches became ghost claws stretched out, which were touching from all directions, and Daoist Li stumbled under his feet, and almost didn't fall on his horse, which was caused by his speeding pace.

"Damn, why is the old forest so terrifying at night, Dao Ye, I am a person who specializes in dealing with ghosts, how can I seep panic," Daoist Li muttered, this kind of gloom is not caused by demons and monsters, but because of the oppressive environment, it is like putting you in a closed secret room, with no five fingers in your hands, and that kind of cold air coming out of your back is a natural reaction of the human body.

"It's here," Mr. Ledger estimated that he felt the same way, running faster than anyone else, and he didn't even have time to implement Daoist Li's plan to break his leg.

Between the mist, earthen houses, grass houses, wooden fences, and a few stoves were placed at the entrance of the village, the lid of the pot was covered, and a skinned old fat pig was tied to the shelf next to it, the fat and muscle tissue were exposed, and the blood and water were dripping in the bowl below.

"Is there anyone? The old man and his companions want to spend the night, and I don't know which good man is willing to take us in, and money is not a problem," exclaimed the bookkeeper, who was a master-like figure and a white-collar worker in this era, but his appearance and character often made people ignore this.

"Who are you looking for," said an old woman, whose face was wrinkled like the skin of an old persimmon, and whose triangular eyes hung blankly, and who held a bowl in her hand, and in which was half a piece of pork that had just been cut, drenched in blood, and whose old hand trembled, as if it was about to fall at any moment.

"Well, old man, we are lost guests in the old forest, and we want to borrow it for a night, I wonder if we can?" said the bookkeeper, swallowing and foaming.

"Spend the night?" the old woman looked at the three of them with strange eyes, and then said for a long time, "Come with me." ”

Looking at the other party's trembling figure, Daoist Li instinctively felt a trace of uneasiness and asked, "Old man, what about the rest of your village?"

"It's so late, everyone is asleep. ”

"Then why don't you sleep?"

"I love to eat dinner. ”

The four of them came to a thatched house on the east side of the village, and with a 'squeak', the old woman pushed open half of the broken door, and there was only one room and one table in the house, and the cauldron was set at the door, and the sporadic flames were swaying, as the only source of fire, adding a little light to the gloomy atmosphere.

The old woman's triangular eyes swept around, and somehow she became interested in the ugly girl who had been silent, "What a cute doll." ”

After speaking, she was about to reach out and touch her face, but the ugly lady subconsciously hid behind Daoist Li, and through the touch, she could feel her body trembling slightly, she was afraid?

Probably refused, the old woman's expression showed a hint of displeasure, turned around, took out a bowl of rice from under the bed, and said, "I'll cook for the guests outside." ”

"Dao Chief, how do I feel that something is wrong with this realm?" asked the bookkeeper in a low voice after waiting for the other party to leave.

"To be honest, I also think it's weird," Daoist Li patted the head of the ugly lady and raised his voice: "Old man, what is the name of your village?"

"Laixiali. ”

"Why do I think I've heard this name somewhere?" said the bookkeeper to himself.

After a while, the old woman brought a few dishes, namely leeks, pork, peanuts, for some reason, although the dishes are simple, but they are extraordinarily attractive, Mr. Bookkeeper can't help but pick them up with his hands, eat is elated, Li Daoist couldn't bear it, just tasted the pork, was quietly pulled by the ugly lady with her hand, shook her head vigorously, and rarely expressed her opinion.

"Daochang Li, come and taste it, this old woman's craftsmanship is absolutely a must, fragrant and crispy, and the pork melts in your mouth, which is very delicious. ”

Seeing that the other party was eating, the old woman squeezed out a smile and said, "The rice is still steaming, I'll take a look." ”

Li Daoshi's eyes rolled, the ugly girl's state today is very abnormal, and how to see how wrong this broken village, dead pigs, old women, new clothes, quietly walked to the door, through the window to see, in addition to the pot stove is still on, the old woman has disappeared, hurriedly walked out, opened the pot to see, fragrant white rice, turned around again, did not find anything wrong, is it his own illusion?

When he was losing his mind, he unconsciously swept the flame in his hand, and quickly shrunk it, and was suddenly stunned, he actually didn't feel the slightest heat, took out a piece of firewood and looked at it, the whole body was black, soft and slippery to the touch, a bit like human skin, and a word burst out of his head, ghost wood?

Ghost wood is a kind of wood that grows in the underworld, which is quite rare in the world, and its function is to attract lonely souls and wild ghosts, so it has a place to live, so this is - **?

Hurriedly swept out the wood in the pot stove, extinguished the ghost fire, and then opened the lid of the pot to see, which was fragrant rice, which was clearly a big white maggot with twist flowers, rolling in the pot, and the stomach of Daoist Li was also rolling.

"Don't eat it!" Daoist Li hurriedly rushed back, overturned the pots and dishes on the table, and these leeks and pork also returned to their original shape, respectively moldy fingers, toes, and human skins.

"Don't be busy throwing up, it's full of lonely souls and wild ghosts, I'll let you vomit well when you escape," the corners of Daoist Li's mouth twitched, people were unlucky to drink saliva and stuffed their teeth, and finally found a place to stay, or **, this thing is absolutely rare in the world, I didn't expect it to appear here.

"Gone!"

Daoist Li set up the account room that was about to faint, and as soon as he rushed out of the door, he bumped into the old woman of the family, who was looking at him with strange eyes at the moment: "Where are the distinguished guests?"

"He has an uncomfortable stomach, I'll take him to the thatched house," Li Daoist responded casually, his footsteps didn't stop, and he went around directly, most of the ghosts were ignorant of their wisdom when they died, and they only did things by instinct, so for the interrogation of ghosts, don't tell the truth when you can tell a lie, otherwise you will be looking for death.

The three of them naturally didn't dare to run out of the village in front of the old woman, but fortunately, there were a lot of houses in **, and they quickly hid in an earthen house, which was empty, with no furniture or anything, and the other houses were lit up with green fires.

"Dao Chief, what should I do?"

"How the hell do I know what to do? It's going to be ten midnight soon, and the yin qi at this time is the heaviest, let's get through it first," Daoist Li had a gloomy face, his yin and yang qi hadn't recovered yet, for these ghosts, they were simply powerless, could they really die here?

"The pig at the door—"

Li Daoist also noticed that where is this pig, it is clearly an upside-down hanging human corpse, and when he thought that the pork he had just eaten was likely to be scraped off the corpse of the other party, the whole person was suddenly not good, as for Mr. Bookkeeper, his spirit was on the verge of collapse, his face was dull, and his hands and feet were cold.

"Hey, there are three outsiders?"

Just when the three of them were nervous, a delicate voice sounded from behind, and Daoist Li hurriedly turned around, only to see a woman in red gauze standing behind, long charming and moving, pink neck like a lotus flower with dew, and her skin was as full as a peach, but it was not as good as her peach blossom eyes, which seemed to be coming with water vapor in the haze of smoke and rain.

"Are you a human or a ghost?" Sure enough, it was a beautiful woman and a strong man, and the eyes of the bookkeeper who was about to die just now suddenly lit up.

"Nonsense," Daoist Li couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Oh, do you recognize the slave?"

"There is a wild fox spirit on his body, a fox demon. ”
