Chapter 135

Everyone went down the mountain in the white mist, and the cottage behind them, which was originally full of filth, had turned into scorched earth.

"Tell me about that mountain road..."

Zhang Biao asked as he walked.

Although Zheng Yongxiang didn't know why, he still replied cautiously: "That road used to be the plank road of the ancient Yan State. Ship to the capital."

"Because Huaizhou is mountainous, apart from our big families, the caravan is also quite powerful. Originally, the road was controlled by them. After something strange happened, they sent experts to investigate repeatedly, but none of them came out alive."

"The fog disaster came, the caravan fell apart, and my Zheng family had to be reminded by Taoist Xu Yuan that no one would dare to approach..."

Listening to his story, Zhang Biao became more and more sure of his own judgment.

It is not a place where evil things gather at all. After the Nuo face clears the fog, it can be seen that the buildings are hidden in the forest, and there is even smoke from early risers, which is clearly inhabited.

Taoist Xuyuan lied!
The so-called mist and giant snakes are all methods of monks.

There must be something hidden there...

Although Zhang Biao was curious, he was not in a hurry to go. After all, this arrangement was mostly related to Xuandu Temple.

It's not good to go to investigate under the eyes of everyone. If Tie and Wang's family are not found in the nearby cottages, it's not too late to investigate before night.

He was very fast, and after descending the mountain, he continued to walk along the road, perhaps because many people died on this road, and many souls of the dead along the way were looming in the thick fog beside the road.

There were also two or three ghosts, all of which were easily eliminated by Zhang Biao.

With Zhang Biao sitting in the town, everyone can be said to be unimpeded, but Zheng Yongxiang's face is full of sadness.

The mountain road is difficult and dangerous, full of ghosts and ghosts. In terms of danger, it is not weaker than the waterway. It seems that even if it is opened up, the transportation of goods will not be so smooth.

He secretly glanced at Zhang Biao, secretly making up his mind.

This mountain road was not short, with more than 70 miles of twists and turns. They were so fast that they found the second cottage just after noon.

With the last experience, everyone is more careful.

It is a pity that this stronghold has been breached, and all the corpses have disappeared. Looking at the huge cracks in the wall of the stronghold and the spider webs floating everywhere, everyone can't guess that all the corpses here have been transported to the stronghold that they saw before. .

Seeing this, Wang Xin became more and more anxious.

Zhang Biao didn't waste any time, ordered everyone to eat some dry food, rest for a while, and then continued to pursue.

Near night, under Zheng Yongxiang's guidance and Yueying's exploration, they finally found the last cottage.

The terrain of this cottage is very special, it is located between the mountains and forms a small basin, and the stone wall of the gate together makes it a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

More importantly, torches were lit on the stone wall of the gate, and there were still people moving around on the watchtower, with guns on their backs, obviously on guard.

This village has not been murdered?

Surprised, Zhang Biao ordered everyone to extinguish the torches, and then controlled Yueying to investigate.

"Meow!"

An accident happened. As soon as Yueying approached, her hair exploded, her invisibility technique failed, and she appeared in front of the guards accompanied by a cloud of black smoke.

"Evil spirits invade!"

The gatekeeper was a half-grown boy who screamed when he saw this, then turned around and ran away.

The same was true for other people at the gate of the village, but there were two people who were relatively calm, took off the gongs around their waists, and beat them as they ran.

"There is something evil!"

"Hide away!"

The whole village suddenly boiled, and the lights came on one after another, and many people rushed out holding torches and ran to the center of the village.

Zhang Biao did not expect that Yueying would be discovered.

But he reacted faster, taking advantage of those people running away, he took two steps in three steps, and jumped onto the three-foot-high stone wall with one leap.

After being transformed by Shura Dan, Wang Xin's physique was also far superior to that of ordinary people, and he jumped up the city wall after him.

Bang!
The two cut the rope at the same time, and the tall and heavy wooden door of the suspension bridge fell down with a bang, flying dust.

"rush!"

Zheng Yongxiang roared, and more than 200 soldiers rushed in with knives and guns.

At the same time, hundreds of people also rushed out of the cottage, all of them were big and three thick men, wearing animal skins, holding bows and arrows, looking at them with murderous looks.

The two sides fell into a confrontation, and both raised their bows to face each other. The night was pitch black and shrouded in thick fog, and only the flickering flames of the opposite side could be seen.

"who!"

"lay down your weapon!"

Both sides were extremely nervous and shouting.

They couldn't see the other side clearly, so they could only vaguely guess the number of people. In this case, any tactics became a joke.

"Don't do it!"

Zhang Biao yelled and held Zheng Yongxiang and the others down first, then shouted to the opposite side: "Old Mr. Yu, the old man from Qinglongdu is here to visit, don't mess around!"

He used his Nuo face to see clearly, in the crowd in front of him, Yu Kui, Yu Ziqing's uncle, was standing in front of him, and Tie Yucheng, Tie Shouming's son, was among them.

"Don't do anything!"

Tie Yucheng's eyes lit up when he heard the words, he shouted to stabilize everyone, and then trembled into the thick fog: "Uncle Zhang...is that you?"

"it's me."

Zhang Biao took off the Nuo mask and walked out slowly from the dense fog. Seeing that Tie Yucheng was still nervous, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm a human, not a ghost."

"It's one of our own, put down your bow!"

In the team, an old man was also full of excitement. He was Wang Xin's father.

"father!"

Wang Xin also ran out.

"Son, you're still alive!"

"You, why did you become like this..."

Father and son recognized each other, and naturally cried a lot.

But Zhang Biao's sight was attracted by a big willow tree in the center of the village. The willow tree was so thick that it was two feet wide, with dense black marks on it.

Thousands of willow branches hang down, densely tied with red strings...

………………

In the cottage hall, the flames flickered.

Zhang Biao and the others sat in front of the fire, drinking hot tea and listening to Tie Yucheng's story.

"Thanks to the method taught by Uncle Zhang..."

Tie Yucheng sighed, and said in a deep voice: "On that day, brother Yu and I took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the city and came to the Taoist temple, which was already in ruins. There were also rumors in the city that you were beheaded by the Yuzhen Mansion. We couldn't find anyone. Had to leave."

"There was a civil turmoil in the Qinglong Gang, so we came to Huaizhou with Uncle Yu's cargo ship, stayed in Shanyindu for a few days, and then planned to go to Moyang City along the mountain road."

"Unexpectedly, there was a sudden fog on the road. Brother Yu and I followed the method you taught to check the signs before the appearance of ghosts. In addition, many of them were harmless dead souls, so we didn't get lost."

"But there was an accident on the way. There was a mountain ghost eating people. It ran after us for a long time. Aunt Wang was also killed on the road. Later, something happened to that thing, and it suddenly disappeared and left. I escaped the catastrophe ..."

"Fortunately, Master Wu of Qingfeng Village and Uncle Yu are old acquaintances, so they took me in and settled down."

"Emergency in the rivers and lakes is a matter of duty."

The village master Wu who was sitting next to him spoke hastily.

This is a stubble-faced man. He is tall, muscular, and dark. After a word of self-effacement, he squinted at Zheng Yongxiang and snorted coldly: "When times are troubled and disasters come, I wanted to give my brothers Find a shelter, now it seems that I can't stay here anymore..."

The embarrassment on Zheng Yongxiang's face flashed away, and then he cupped his hands and said: "I remember now, Your Excellency, but you are the leader Wu of the Iron Fire Gang?"

Seeing Zhang Biao's questioning eyes, Zheng Yongxiang quickly introduced: "The Tiehuo Gang is the Blacksmith Fragrance Association, and there was some friction with a son of our Zheng family."

"fart!"

This Wuzhai master is a hot-tempered person, and when he heard the words, he jumped up against the case and shouted angrily: "It's clear that Zheng Yonghui, that little bastard, wants to rob me to smelt the secret method, so what if I kill him, your Zheng family is too deceitful, if you don't give us a way to survive, then you will be killed." Speak with a knife!"

"It's all misunderstanding, it's all misunderstanding!"

Zheng Yongxiang glanced at Zhang Biao, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, "Don't get angry, Lord Wu Xiang, don't worry, I will deal with this matter, and I will give you an explanation."

Village Master Wu was also a little surprised when he heard the words. He looked at Zhang Biao thoughtfully, and sat down silently.

He is not a fool, with the domineering temperament of the Zheng family, he was able to be so submissive, probably because of Zhang Biao's face.

But it's not easy to ask more questions now, so I can only ask Yu Kui later.

Zhang Biao didn't care either, and looked at Tie Yucheng, "Where's Yu Ziqing, did something happen?"

Tie Yucheng's expression turned ugly, "Brother Yu, there's something wrong with him..."

"Oh?"

Zhang Biao narrowed his eyes slightly, "Take me to have a look."

…………

Contrary to Zhang Biao's expectations, Yu Ziqing was not in the wooden building, but sitting cross-legged in the center of the village, inside the big willow tree hole.

The tree hole was not big, and could only accommodate one person. At this time, Yu Ziqing was unkempt, with a messy beard, and crossed his legs with his eyes closed. Through the messy clothes, he could see the muscles all over his body twitching and jumping constantly.

And in front of him, there is an incense burner, which is worshiped like a god.

Tie Yucheng looked around and said in a low voice: "This village is a bit weird, since I came here, there have been no ghosts."

"After Brother Yu came, he often lost his mind and said that someone was talking to him. Later, it became more serious, and he even opened his mouth to tell where there are wild animals and where there are wild fruits..."

"After that, he stayed in the tree cave all the time, and the people in the village also enshrined him as a psychic."

"Uncle Zhang, is this..."

"Yes!"

Zhang Biao nodded slightly, and looked up at the tall willow tree, "Unexpectedly, there is a natural spirit awakening here. Ziqing is being channeled, and he can become a spirit witch after waking up."

As he said that, the eyes of spiritual vision began to work, and information flooded in:

Liu Ling (fourth grade of yellow class)
1. The remnants of the ancient willow ritual artifacts grow in the center of the earth's atmosphere in the mountains. The thousand-year sunshine, moonlight, and lightning strikes are immortal for nine times.

2. The natural spirit is peaceful in nature, feel the power of incense and fire, turn into a vulgar god to protect one side, and can use magic spells: imperial planting, driving away darkness, distributing fog, storing wind and absorbing energy.

3. Communicating with the spirit witch...

Sure enough!

Zhang Biao looked around and exclaimed, "It's a good place, with the willow spirit guarding it, it's like a peach blossom garden in the mist disaster."

Yu Kui said nervously beside him, "Immortal Master Tai Sui..."

Tie and Wang's family knew very well that Zhang Biao's identity was sensitive, and kept concealing it on the way. He didn't know Zhang Biao's identity until just now.

"rest assured."

Zhang Biao smiled, "Ziqing is deeply blessed, and will return to normal after waking up."

Looking at the valley, he already intended to live in seclusion...
