Chapter 224 Chapter 223
With the help of the name of the ghost village, Xu Huang escaped the inspection of Yuan Jun's scouts, which was what he expected.

Now, he just needs to wait here quietly overnight, and when Yuan Jun crosses the Gaojia River tomorrow, his mission will be considered a success.

However, things often happen by accident.

While Xu Huang was still secretly rejoicing, Yuan Jun, who was setting up camp on the other side of the river, actually had a soldier and horse drive up the wooden bridge. Yelling.

Xu Huang looked over, but saw that the bridgehead on the other side in the darkness was burning into the sky, Yuan Jun's soldiers were all lighting torches, like a long fire dragon.

His heart was shocked, and he thought to himself: "Could it be discovered by Yuan Jun?"

Xu Huang didn't dare to think too much. Faced with this sudden situation, he could only wait patiently among the ruins, and asked his subordinates to be ready for battle at any time. Without his order, no one could make a sound.

General Yuan Jun boarded the wooden bridge. The ruins where Xu Huang and others were located were just below the wooden bridge. They could look up and clearly see that General Yuan Jun was hurriedly crossing the bridge.

There are countless torches on the wooden bridge, and the flames soar into the sky, reflecting the surroundings like daytime.The ruins of Gaojiahe Village under the bridge are also full of light, but because Xu Huang and others are hiding in the corners of ruined walls, it is not easy to be illuminated by light, and it is still a dark area.

But because of the different angles, some places were illuminated by the light, but because of Xu Huang's careful arrangement, the soldiers covered his body with soil and lay motionless on the ground, which can be said to be very well hidden.

"Bang!"

A loud noise came from directly below the wooden bridge, as if something fell under the wooden bridge and was crushed by rocks.

At this moment, on the wooden bridge, a man riding a war horse and wearing armor suddenly turned over and jumped off his horse, and came to the bridge at the fastest speed. He looked down the bridge as if looking around, but he could only see into total darkness.

The person wearing the armor is none other than Li Feng.

At this time, Li Feng looked nervous. He looked at the big box that fell off the wooden bridge, and felt a pain in his heart.This box is full of rare treasures that he scavenged, no matter where he goes, he will bring this box with him.Falling off the bridge now, I really don't know how many rare treasures will be smashed!
Li Feng was in a hurry, and immediately shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Oh, my precious! You bastards, you are so careless, all my treasures are in this box, why don't you hurry up and look for them!"

For Li Feng, everything in this wooden box can be discarded, but there is only one treasure that he misses the most, and that is the night pearl lying in the golden silk bag.

After hearing Li Feng's words, the soldiers all showed some embarrassment on their faces.Most of these people are from the Shouchun area, so they are no strangers to the ghost village of Gaojiahe. When they heard that Li Feng asked them to go down to look for things, they all turned pale with fright, and no one responded.

"What's wrong with you all? What are you still doing here, why don't you hurry up and look for it?" Li Feng said angrily.

"General, there is a famous ghost village down here. I heard people say that there are ghosts in the ruins, so we dare not go there. Why don't we go look for them after dawn?"

Li Feng is eager to love Bao, but he is also afraid of ghosts, and he dare not go down by himself, so he can only rely on his subordinates.But he didn't expect that these subordinates of his were also some courageous bandits.

So, Li Feng thought about it again, and felt that there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, so he immediately said to the general behind him: "A group of cowards, what kind of ghost village, where are there any ghosts in this world? If there are, they are all pretending to be ghosts." Don't be afraid, I will watch for you from above, if there is any abnormal situation, I will immediately let the soldiers shoot arrows. In addition, as long as anyone goes down to help me find the box, and bring back all the things inside, this general There are many rewards!"

Speaking of this, several generals became bolder, but hesitated, because Li Feng was always stingy, and even if it was a big reward, it was only a few thousand dollars.But this time it was different, it was Li Feng's treasure that fell under the bridge, so the generals secretly speculated, wondering how much Li Feng would reward?
"General, do you know how much the reward is?" A general asked straight to the point.

Li Feng stretched out a hand, spread all five fingers, and shouted: "If anyone can get all my things back, I will reward him with a thousand gold!"

"A thousand gold rewards!" All the generals sighed for a while. They all knew that Li Feng was stingy and stingy. This time, he was willing to give a thousand gold as a reward. It was the first time in history.

It is true that there must be a brave man under a heavy reward. Several generals stepped forward and volunteered to retrieve the fallen things for Li Feng.

Li Feng saw several people, and they were arguing endlessly beside him. He was so anxious that when he heard the quarrels of the generals, he became more noisy, which made him feel even more uneasy.

So, Li Feng said angrily: "Okay, okay, stop arguing, just go!"

Li Feng casually pointed to a general.

The general was ecstatic immediately, and after a "here", he turned around and left immediately.

He ordered a hundred people to follow him to the ruins under the bridge. Everyone lit torches, and the hundred soldiers all drank to strengthen their courage. The river bank, came to the place where Li Feng dropped the wooden box.

The light of the fire dispelled the darkness under the bridge, making the place brightly lit, making it easier to see at a glance.

After the general arrived here, he saw nothing except rocks of various shapes and sizes scattered here, not even a piece of broken sawdust.

Standing on the bridge, Li Feng saw that there were only rocks under the bridge, but his box was missing. He was startled, and shouted from the bridge: "What's the matter, where is my box?"

The general also looked curious, scratching his head, still can't figure it out, the box obviously fell from the bridge to this place, why can't it be found?
"General, this subordinate didn't see anything!"

Li Feng said: "Impossible. I saw the box fall with my own eyes and heard the sound of it breaking. How could I not find it? You can search carefully for me to see if there is any around?"

That book was scattered, and I searched everywhere again, but still couldn't find anything.

At this time, the soldiers did not know who was the first to mention this sentence: "Could it be a ghost?"

After hearing this, the rest of the soldiers were a little apprehensive. Holding their torches high, they looked at the ruins of Gaojiahe Village on the river bank, feeling extremely nervous.

At this moment, a white figure suddenly soared into the sky in the ruins, flew over two or three dilapidated houses, and landed again, silent in the ruins.

"Ghost!" At this moment, seeing the scene of the white shadow floating, with fluffy hair and fluttering appearance, he yelled loudly, his face turned pale with fright, he turned and ran away.

After the rest of the soldiers heard the cry, Qiqi looked into the ruins and saw that there was nothing unusual in the ruins, so they calmed down a little and laughed at the soldier's cowardice secretly.

Suddenly, the white shadow rose into the sky again, floating in the air...

"Ghost!"

This time, almost all the people saw this unimaginable scene at the same time, and shouted loudly, scared the shit out of their asses, and ran to the shore for fear of being caught by the ghost.

Even the general was so frightened that he peed his pants, his legs were trembling, and he fled ashore staggeringly, not daring to approach the ruins of Gaojiahe Village.

Li Feng could see it clearly from the bridge, and he was also quite frightened by the sudden appearance, but he still missed his treasure box, especially the luminous pearl, which was priceless. When Huainan was attacked before, it was taken from the home of a rich merchant in Huainan.

"General, have you seen it? There is really a ghost here. Let's leave here quickly. It's not too late to look for it after dawn!" the generals comforted.

Unwilling to leave like this, Li Feng said: "You must have been dazzled just now. What is the ghost? If there is a ghost, why didn't I see it?"

At this moment, more than 100 white shadows suddenly appeared in the ruins. The white shadows were all disheveled, and their faces could not be seen clearly. They all flew into the air and swayed in the air together...

"There are ghosts! There really are ghosts! Go! Go!" Li Feng and the others saw this scene with their own eyes again. This time it was not just a white shadow, but more than 100 of them were floating in the air together. It was so shocking that the soldiers standing on the bridge were scared to death, shouted loudly, and retreated to the west bank of Gaojia River.

The soldiers on the bridge first fell into chaos. They wanted to retreat, but the soldiers behind did not receive the order, but continued to move forward. As a result, they blocked the entrance of the wooden bridge and blocked it completely.

For a while, Yuan Jun's soldiers on the wooden bridge fell into chaos, and two groups of people blocked the entrance. There were more than 1000 people standing on the wooden bridge, and they were crowded again. The sound of "creaking" seemed to be unable to bear the weight, and it began to shake.

"Kara!"

Suddenly there was a loud noise, and the wooden bridge finally couldn't bear so much pressure, and it collapsed. Yuan Jun's soldiers on the wooden bridge fell from the bridge one after another.

The wooden bridge was four or five meters high from the pile of rocks at the bottom of the bridge. People fell down suddenly. Some of their heads hit the rocks directly, and they were smashed to death in an instant, while others broke their hands and feet. , screamed out in pain, and there were ghosts haunting the nearby ruins, people with low mental capacity were directly scared out of their wits.

Some were lucky enough to fall directly into the river and flow downstream along the river.

Xu Huang hid in the ruins. He watched the scene of the collapse of the wooden bridge very carefully. He could hear the painful moaning in his ears even more, and even more screams of panic.

He watched from a distance, but frowned. The wooden bridge collapsed, which was not a good thing for him. If Yuan Jun couldn't cross the Gaojia River, how would they enter the ambush circle?
After realizing the seriousness of this matter, Xu Huang only felt that he had played too much this time.As soon as he had an idea, he immediately thought of a way to make up for it, so he called a scout and gave some instructions in the scout's ear, and the scout happily took the order and left.
