Chapter 89 Rainy Night ([-])

The drizzle is hard to see in the dark night, but it is everywhere.

Jiang Yuan didn't know the art of tracking, nor did he know where the villagers went after they left towards the north, and he was not sure of following Gong Liangyi and Yuniang without being discovered.

But Jiang Yuan was not in a hurry, he walked slowly into the forest and headed in a specific direction.

Yuniang's arm was injured and had been smeared with medicine.

Whether it was the bloody smell of wounds or the smell of medicine, they all slowly wandered in the cold air.

Now Jiang Yuan's sense of smell is extremely sensitive, he only needs to follow the smell of Yuniang's body to find Yuniang, and then find Gongliangyi and the villagers.

After traveling through the mountains and forests for a while, the clothes that had just been dried in the ancestral hall were soaked again, and even the hair was dripping with water.

Jiang Yuan still walked in a leisurely manner.

As we go deeper into the mountains, the ancestral halls and villages have gradually disappeared.

After crossing two ridges, a muddy path began to appear in front of us.

With a road, there is a clear destination.The path winds up the mountainside and leads to the back of a big mountain.

After Jiang Yuan walked for a while, a boundary marker appeared on the side of the road, with the three characters "Shanyin Village" on it.

"It seems that the destination is not far away."

Jiang Yuan continued on the road, hoping to arrive sooner, otherwise it would be dawn after another two hours.

When going around the mountainside along the mountain road, the shadows and outlines of some buildings appeared faintly in the depression.

The thick blood followed, and Jiang Yuan followed the blood to find the bodies of two villagers in the grass beside the mountain road.

There was still some heat left on the body, but it had already rotted very badly.

"There is no ghost spirit, it seems that Gong Liangyi made it."

The two corpses may be secret sentries, or they may be missing villagers, but they were dealt with conveniently.

Leaving the corpse, Jiang Yuan slowly approached the village.

He began to become cautious, leaving the road and entering the lush grass.Because the smell on Yu Niang's body is already very clear, not far away.

In this deep mountain, the weeds grow very luxuriantly, and the leaves and stems left by the raindrops are almost as tall as a person.

Jiang Yuan kept shuttling along the grass, not approaching Yuniang, but gradually moving away, to a place with a wide view.

Pushing aside the weeds in front of him, Jiang Yuan looked towards Yuniang's position in the distance.

After searching carefully, Jiang Yuan finally saw Yuniang hiding in a tree canopy in the distance, and her eyes were looking in another direction.

Jiang Yuan followed Yuniang's line of sight and found Gong Liangyi who was standing farther behind a boulder.

Gong Liangyi observed the village quietly, holding a piece of crystal round jade in his hand, emitting a faint blue light.And at his feet, also lay a highly decomposed corpse.

Women's cries kept coming from the village, and Jiang Yuan could hear that it was the voice of the pregnant woman from before.

What is strange is that, apart from the cry of the pregnant woman, there is no other sound in the village, lifeless.

"Ding Ling Ling Ling."

The crisp copper bell rang suddenly in this silent night.

The copper bell rang intermittently, as if wandering in the village.

Following the ringing of the bell, many wandering figures began to appear in the gloomy village.

At this moment, the woman's cry became more and more shrill.

The copper bell began to shift, gradually leaving the village and heading towards the mountain on the other side of the village.

The figures left the village following the sound of the copper bell, and the screams of the pregnant women also disappeared.

In the gloomy village, it became more and more dead silent.

At this time, Gong Liangyi moved.

I saw that he put away the round jade, did not move on, but turned his head and left.

Jiang Yuan originally thought that Gong Liangyi was just taking a detour, but after a while, he realized that he was actually returning the same way, and disappeared into the dense night after a short time.

"What's going on?" Jiang Yuan couldn't help but be full of doubts, "Is there something that makes him afraid? Or has he already got what he wants?"

Apart from Jiang Yuan who was also puzzled, there was also Yuniang who was hiding in the canopy of the tree.

She stared at Gong Liangyi leaving in surprise with her beautiful eyes, and then looked back at the mountain behind the village, as if hesitating.

Jiang Yuan expected Yuniang to leave with Gong Liangyi.

However, Yuniang jumped off the big tree nimbly, and even flew towards the mountain behind the village.

Jiang Yuan snorted coldly:
"This woman."

Yuniang is naturally not stupid, Jiang Yuan thinks she is too greedy.

People like her have always relied on intelligence to get paid.This time, when I encountered such a secret, I tried to make a profit from it.

Jiang Yuan doesn't know what confidence Yuniang has in doing this, but that's fine, let her find the way for him.

Not long after Yuniang left, Jiang Yuan also walked out of the grass and followed Yuniang closely.

The two of them, one in front of the other, moved quickly along the forest surrounding the village, towards the mountain where the ringing of the bell disappeared.

Yuniang was not in Jiang Yuan's sight, but her scent ensured that Jiang Yuan would not be lost.

After a long journey, Jiang Yuan finally arrived at his destination.

The mountain is steep and precipitous, and it is difficult for ordinary people to climb.

Just above this steep mountain wall, there is a two-foot-wide gap. This kind of fault caused by the movement of the mountain forms a strange scene.

Both the footprints of the villagers and the smell of Yu Niang have entered this dark and straight gap.

Jiang Yuan hesitated for a moment, then followed suit.

Moving forward in the dark tunnel, a strong sense of pressure and oppression rushed towards both sides.

I don't know how long I have been walking in the darkness, and my sight suddenly opens.

It turned out to be a valley surrounded by steep mountain walls.

The valley is hotter and humid than the outside, and the plants here are also extraordinarily plump and dense, showing a dark dark green in the dark.

The terrain at the exit of the tunnel is high and the line of sight is wide.Looking around, one can faintly see the gloomy figure of a towering cliff behind the mist in the valley.

Jiang Yuan only felt that he was in a crater, but the difference was that it was full of fat plants.

The valley is full of luxuriant forests, and in the middle of the forest there is a faint fire beating, it seems that there are buildings in this forest.

"It seems... very wrong here!"

Jiang Yuan raised his head, and saw the mountain wall piercing into the sky from all around his eyes, but he couldn't see the starry sky, only the slowly wriggling mist in his eyes.

The uncanny workmanship of nature, coupled with this strange atmosphere, made Jiang Yuan also start to hesitate:
"Should we continue to investigate further?"

When Jiang Yuan was hesitating, he saw a translucent figure slowly wandering in the woods under the gentle slope.

The man had disheveled hair, expressionless face, no expression in his eyes, his body seemed to be a phantom, and his feet didn't touch the ground, just floating aimlessly around a foot above the ground.

"Ghost! It's still a weak ghost."

Jiang Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly walked towards the figure.

The figure still lowered its head slightly, as if it was only wandering in a specific area, and did not respond at all as Jiang Yuan approached.

Until Jiang Yuan approached the figure at a distance of ten feet, the figure still did not move.

Jiang Yuan hesitated for a moment, and quickly came only a few feet behind the figure.

At this time, the figure suddenly reacted, it turned around in an instant, grinned ferociously, and swooped towards Jiang Yuan with both hands raised.

Jiang Yuan stood still on the spot, but a ball of flame rose from his hand, and then pressed towards the pounced ghost.

The figure was instantly burned away by the flames, and a wisp of ghost energy was also absorbed by Jiang Yuan.

"Such a faint ghostly aura."

He couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

But right after, Jiang Yuan became happy again. He saw many such wandering spirits floating in the lush forest.

These wandering spirits wandered aimlessly in the dense forest just like they encountered before.There are more than a dozen of them that Jiang Yuan can see alone, and it is not clear how many there will be in the depths of the dense forest.

"There are so many? The quality is not enough, so let's make up for it with quantity."

At that moment, Jiang Yuan stopped hesitating and walked towards the dense forest.

One after another, wandering souls were burned into ghost energy by Jiang Yuan, and these wandering souls didn't know the reason, but they didn't know how to escape.They all roam within a certain range in the forest, and only become vicious when they get close.

On the contrary, it was more convenient for Jiang Yuan, and he wiped out all the wandering souls around him in a short time.

After absorbing a lot of ghost energy, Jiang Yuan still couldn't finish it, and he cast his greedy eyes deeper into the dense forest:

"It's a good trip. Although I don't know what's ahead, it's worth the risk!"

He rushed into the forest quickly, chasing after more wandering souls.

Jiang Yuan couldn't guess how many wandering souls there were in the valley, but as long as he moved about 30 meters away, he could see wandering souls floating around.

Jiang Yuan absorbs all the way and moves forward, getting deeper and deeper into the jungle.

However, not long after moving forward, a sound of fighting and a strong smell suddenly came.

"Yu Niang? This woman is so courageous!"

Jiang Yuan recognized that it was the smell of Yuniang, but he didn't expect that as an ordinary warrior, she would dare to go deep into the dense forest full of wandering spirits.

Although there are traces of the wandering soul's actions, it is not difficult to penetrate into it, but who can guarantee that there is no greater danger in it.Jiang Yuan was very surprised by Yuniang's courage:
"Is she really just out of greed? Maybe, she also has her own secrets."

Jiang Yuan immediately approached Yuniang softly, wanting to take a look at this woman's credentials.

As she got closer, Yuniang's figure was gradually revealed in the forest, and she was actually fighting with two weird villagers.

Jiang Yuan hid behind a big tree and looked forward.

I saw that Yuniang was pulling out the long sword in her hand from the chest of a villager, and then retreated quickly, and at the same time, the long sword in her hand cut the throat of another villager instantly.

Although the two villagers were fatally wounded, they still showed no signs of pain.

I saw their faces were pale, with two white fangs protruding from their mouths, and they smiled ferociously.
