Zhao Yi walked at the front, holding a purple gold bell in his hand, followed by Mao Zong with a talisman on his head.

  And behind Mao Zong's body, there was a row of corpses, the ones that disappeared in major hospitals.

  They were all picked up by Zhao Yi and brought back together. After all, this was the main task this time.

  Wang Ye and Zhang Qilin were scattered on the left and right, rushing forward in the dark.

  "Where is the south of Pinnacle Mountain?"

  Zhao Yi looked at the direction ahead, and there was a faint light suddenly asking in a deep voice.

  It must be said that Li Xue is better at this matter. Before going up the mountain, he wrote down Pinnacle Mountain and the surrounding environment.

  "To the south of Pinnacle Mountain are some older villages, which are generally self-reliant and rarely interact with outsiders.

  Coupled with the particularity of the geographical location, developers rarely choose here, so these villages are almost never disturbed. "

  Zhao Yi nodded:

  "Let's go, then we have to try our luck. If we are lucky, maybe we can rest for a while."

  This made several people feel a little puzzled.

  "Try luck, what luck?"

  Zhao Yi was not in a hurry to speak, but just motioned for everyone to continue walking forward.

  Not long after, along this secluded mountain road, everyone finally got close to the place where the lights were. It turned out to be a village with a few bungalows scattered around.

  It was already late at night, and the lights in the village were basically turned off. The light that caused everyone was coming from two white lanterns hanging outside the door of a special house.

  When they saw the two white lanterns, Wang Ye and the three looked at each other with a bit of astonishment.

  When they were looking for the missing bus before, they had also seen white lanterns in the illusion. Zhao Yi also said at the time that the white lanterns were guiding the dead to return home.

  Wang Ye looked at Zhao Yi and whispered:

  "Director, what's the matter with the lantern? Are we in a fantasy world again?"

  However, Zhao Yi looked a little happy when he saw the white lantern. He shook his head and said as he walked forward:

  "Sure enough, in the 90s, there were still such inns in remote places. Let's go, we don't have to camp in the mountains today."

  Several people are very puzzled.

  According to the director, is that an inn?

  This name is a bit too old.

  An inn means a hotel now.

  But why does this hotel have white lanterns hanging, and the people around him have turned off the lights and are asleep, only the two white lanterns in front of his door are swaying slightly in the wind, which is very strange.

  The surroundings were extremely quiet, except for Zhao Yi's bell, there was no other sound.

  "Ting bell... ding bell... ding bell..."

  With the sound of the bell, they were getting closer and closer to the inn mentioned by Zhao Yi. Several people were surprised to find that the lights in the room that had been turned off turned on at this time.

  A figure walked outside in clothes.

  This person seemed to be attracted by the sound of the bell, which made several people feel even more puzzled.

  In this remote mountain village, shouldn't it be more weird to hear such a bell sound?Why did you attract this person?

  The figure stood under the white lantern and seemed to be trying to look over here. Due to the distance, he could only vaguely identify it as an old man.

  The dry tobacco rod in the old man's hand lights up from time to time.It flickered like a firefly in the darkness.

  "Director, let's take a detour and stop scaring this old man."

  Li Xue couldn't bear it, and came forward to persuade Zhao Yi.

  However, Zhao Yi was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile:

  "That old man should have experienced more than you have seen. After all, people eat this bowl of rice, so you can't be scared, but don't be scared."

  It was another remark that made everyone confused.

  And a few people are very unconvinced, he is also a strange person after all, right?Could it be better than an old man in a mountain nest?

  They were very puzzled, but they couldn't find any answers, so they could only follow Zhao Yi curiously, getting closer and closer to the figure under the white lantern.

  "Director, what exactly is this place, and why are you carrying a white lantern?"

  Zhao Yi said meaningfully:

  "You can tell if you win. This is now a Yizhuang ancestral hall in a mountain village, but in the early years... Judging from the appearance of the outside, it should be an inn..."

  However, when the few people finally walked down the mountain road and entered the corner of the village, a somewhat old voice came from their ears:

  "Dare to ask, but the master of walking feet?"

  This voice is full of old taste, but at the same time it is full of excitement and excitement, and there is a bit of vicissitudes of life, which makes several people look at each other, not knowing why.

  Zhao Yi heard this sentence, but did not answer immediately, but continued to control Mao Zong to walk forward.

  "Director, is he talking to us? What is a walking master?"

  Ma Baoer asked Zhao Yi curiously, at this time Zhao Yi finally stopped selling off:

  "In ancient times, corpse hunters were actually very shy about the word corpse, and they generally wouldn't call themselves corpse hunters, but called themselves a foot-walking master.

  So the innkeeper came up to ask if he was a walking master, not a corpse carpenter.

  The reason should be to worry about angering the corpse carpenter, so he used the honorary title. "

  When Zhao Yi was picking up the corpse just now, he had introduced to a few people what a corpse hunter was.

  But what makes them feel strange is that in this remote mountain village, there are still people who know the existence of the corpse carpenter.

  In doubt, several people followed Zhao Yi a few steps forward, and after a while they appeared in front of the ancestral hall.

  Reflected in the light of the white lantern, Zhao Ye slowly raised his head and looked at the old man standing at the door:

  "Exactly!"

  The hunchbacked old man took a deep breath of dry cigarettes, looked at Zhao Yi's appearance, and was immediately stunned.

  He frowned, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes, and he thought subconsciously:

  "This person is a corpse carpenter?"

  "But it's so dignified and majestic, it doesn't look like it!"

  In ancient times, people who chased corpses would choose those who looked bad or even deformed. In a jargon, it was a murderer doing murderous work!

  Chasing a corpse is a very ferocious business, and it takes a fierce-looking person to resist it!

  Looking at Zhao Yi again, he looks dignified and upright, plus the military leader's own majesty, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like a walker.

  However, this old man has seen a lot of the world after all, and also knows some ancestral ways, so he can quickly tell that what Zhao Yi said is not a lie.

  Although he was still very puzzled, the old man stopped thinking about it. After all, he had only seen this corpse carpenter in his life. Maybe it was someone special!

  Soon, the old man showed a look of joy, looking at Zhao Yi's eyes, there were some tears in his eyes:

  "It's finally here!"

  As the old man spoke, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

  In the time of his ancestors, it must have been at least a hundred years ago. This mountain road was the road that corpse hunters often traveled. Therefore, his ancestors opened a corpse-hunting inn here.

  But later, with the development and progress of the times, the profession of corpse hunter gradually disappeared, and when the corpse hunter got into his hands, it became a righteous village.

  Because there is no walking master coming, the inn naturally can't go on.

  The bodies of several surrounding villages will be parked here.

  But the ancestors had a lesson, and the old man never forgot it, but in his heart, he no longer believed that there would be a corpse carpenter in this world.

  But today, it really made him hear the bells that his ancestors told him when he was young.

  It was only now that he was sure that there were actually walking masters in this world!

  He hurriedly bowed to Zhao Yi and said in his mouth:

  "Please rush the foot master to wait here for a while!"

  Without waiting for Zhao Yi to respond, he quickly returned to the room.

  Zhao Yi glanced at the old man's back, but did not stop him.

  In this scene, others felt very puzzled, why the old man saw Zhao Yi.There was no fear, but rather excitement.

  "Director, tell us quickly, what's going on here?"

  Wang Ye couldn't bear it any longer, and approached Zhao Yi and said in a low voice.

  Zhao Yi looked at Wang Ye and then looked at the eyes of the people behind him, all of them were full of doubts.

  Luckily, Zhao Yi no longer sold off, and said in a low voice:

  "Don't you think it's strange that there is an inn in the village?

  The village is so big, and few strangers come and go, why should there be an inn?

  And there are still white lanterns hanging at the entrance of the inn..."

  Several people nodded one after another, and they have been wondering about this for a long time...

  Seeing everyone's appearance, Zhao Yi said slowly:

  "This inn is not for people to live in, so it is also called the corpse inn.

  In the early years, when the corpse was rampant, the corpse carpenter would take this kind of mountain road.

  The matter of driving corpses has a long history. People who have died in other places are led by the corpse to walk step by step in the night of the mountains and forests.

  The corpse driver rang the copper bell in no hurry, and the corpse, wearing a spell, followed every step of the way. On the mountain road, wherever the copper bell could be heard, the chickens did not croak, the dogs did not bark, the birds and beasts avoided, and even the swimming fishes Dive deep into the water. "

  Zhao Yi said that he looked at a few people here, and they all showed great interest, but he had no choice but to continue:

  "For the corpse hunter, the most important things are nothing more than three points, picking up the corpse, walking, and the corpse inn.

  The most important thing is to choose the time.

  Corpse hunters generally travel day and night. They do not pass through villages or towns, but choose some barren mountains or mountain paths to walk slowly.
