Chapter 326 Ghosts

The two of them stopped walking at the same time, and their eyebrows and eyes flickered thoughtfully.

Could it be that something happened in this place?
Seeing their reaction to the outsider's entry into the village was unexpectedly large.

As he thought about it, he looked around without a trace, and saw that although the sparrow was small and complete, except for the bed against the wall, tables, chairs, benches, stoves, pots and pans, and even stored food were piled up in this room. In the room, even the small room was packed to the brim.

……

After a while, the two of them sat around the table. Their lunch was sweet potato porridge, which was steaming hot. Taking a sip of sweetness warmed their hearts.

"Eat it, there's not enough in the pot. I don't have anything at home, my wife. I only have more sweet potatoes. You can take some with you when you leave. You can eat them after you peel them on the way. It's convenient and you'll be full."

The old woman sat on the bedside and fed the old man, turning to look at them from time to time, her eyes became kindly as she thought about it.

On the other hand, the old man still had a bad complexion, muttering something while eating, "How can you let outsiders in, don't drive them away and just bring them home, what if something happens" and so on. if.

Jun Chuyue glanced at Murong Fengyuan thoughtfully, and the latter happened to look this way, their eyes met, and they understood each other, and the man asked tentatively: "Ma'am, has something happened to this village?" ? Why are you so nervous when outsiders come in?"

"No, no, nothing happened. It's just that our place is self-sufficient all the year round, and outsiders are not very welcome."

The old woman hastily denied it, but no matter how she heard it, there was a feeling that there was no silver 300 taels here. Although Jun Chuyue and the two were a little curious, they had already made it clear that they didn't want to talk about it, so they stopped asking. After all, they were on this trip The purpose is to travel around the mountains and rivers, and the other things can be one thing less.

Thinking about it, both of them speeded up their eating movements, preparing to leave on the road after a while.

But things backfired, the more I think about something, the harder it is to get something.

Seeing that the porridge in the bowl had bottomed out, Jun Chuyue scraped it with the spoon and was about to put it into her mouth, when a whirlwind suddenly blew outside, causing the dishes on the table to vibrate.

In an instant, the faces of the old woman and the couple changed drastically.

"Oops!"

Jun Chuyue and Murong Feng Yuanzheng stretched their bodies instinctively, and put their hands on the hilt of the sword. After hearing the exclamation of the old woman and the couple, the man spoke, his voice sank slightly: "Ma'am, you still have to deal with it now?" Don't you want to say anything?"

Old woman:"……"

She supported the old man's shoulders, holding the bowl in the other hand and trembling, as if thinking of something terrible, her face became pale and bloodless.

The old man coughed anxiously, and scolded: "I said don't mess with your good intentions and let outsiders in, it's all right now, cough cough, you dead old woman, you forgot how our dog died Is it right?"

Hearing the word "death", Jun Chuyue and Murong Fengyuan involuntarily frowned again.

seem……

More serious than they expected?
"There is movement outside."

Jun Chuyue's eyes flashed suddenly. She majored in assassination and was very sensitive to changes in the surrounding environment. After saying this, she shook her wrist slightly and pulled out the soft sword wrapped around her waist.

At this moment, the old woman finally spoke: "Oh, I shouldn't have kept you, that's all. Now that I have reached this point, I have nothing to hide. This is Li Family Village, and most of the people in the village are surnamed Li. They all live here, the place you went to just now was originally the ancestral hall of the village, in addition to enshrining the ancestors of our Li family village, it is said that there is also a ghost."

"About 50 years ago, something happened suddenly in the village. This incident caused the ghost to be born, destroyed the ancestral hall, and killed many people. The village suddenly declined. Some people wanted to escape. I don’t know what kind of magic that ghost did, as long as someone in the village wants to go out, it will be like encountering a ghost hitting a wall at the entrance of the village.

"Later, all the young people in the village were eaten up, leaving only us old ones. The ghost didn't know if it was picky, but it turned a blind eye to us, but it set its target on outsiders. As long as outsiders come in , will be taken away by that ghost that night, so how dare we let outsiders stay in the village, as long as anyone comes, we will drive them out immediately, so as not to be poisoned by the ghost."

"After such a long time, there will be fewer people coming slowly. Before you, no one has passed by for many years. I think you will be fine if you go around the village, and you may have a meal. There's still time to go, but who ever thought... don't talk, don't talk, you guys quickly hide under the bed, you can hide for a while."

The wind direction outside changed again, and at the same time, the expression of the old woman also changed.She hurriedly stood up and called Murong Fengyuan and Jun Chuyue to go over.

"It's okay."

Jun Chuyue spoke.

The understatement but full of confidence made the old woman startled, and she asked again: "What does the ghost look like, can the aunt describe it?"

"What it looks like... No one has ever seen what it looks like. They only know that as soon as it appears, there will be strong winds. All they can see is a black mist. People are dragged into the black mist, and when they come out , there is only a skeleton frame left; oh yes, where the black mist has passed, there will be a layer of phosphorous powder left."

Before the words were finished, the hurricane outside rolled up and rushed towards the door fiercely.

boom!
The already precarious door panel was torn apart in an instant, Jun Chuyue and Murong Fengyuan made a decisive decision, and leaped out of the window with lightness kung fu.

When it landed, it was facing the black mist that the old woman had mentioned.

The two confront each other.

Jun Chuyue unconsciously twisted thin lines between her brows: "Is this the man-eating ghost that the aunt said?"

It was obviously the first time that she had seen a ghost with her own eyes, but why, the moment she saw this thing, she had an inexplicably familiar feeling?

Just thinking about it, a deep male voice sounded urgently: "Be careful!"

The black mist rushed towards her.

Jun Chuyue tapped her toes, and her body suddenly retreated more than a few feet. After avoiding the impact of the black mist, she turned around again, and stood at the other end of the black mist in the blink of an eye.

After some probing, she calmed down a bit——

If it's just like this, then this ghost still can't do anything to her, and as for Murong Fengyuan, there is no need to worry, the man should have realized this, moved his hand on the hilt of his sword, and walked to her side heavily He said, "Madam rest first, I will leave this place to my husband."
