"I happened to pass by your place halfway, and I wanted to rest, eat, drink and have a rest."
"It's inconvenient!" Headmaster Xu flatly rejected his request: "Leave quickly, our town doesn't welcome outsiders recently."
"Don't." The bearded man said quickly: "We give money, we won't eat and drink for free!"
"No amount of money will do." Xu Dean glared, "I'm doing it for your own good!"
"You are making no sense."
A young man came up from behind with a sincere tone: "Look at the weather now, it's almost dusk, the town is surrounded by wilderness, and you may encounter wild animals when you walk at night."
"You should save our lives, it's convenient."
The young man spoke the truth.
In this year, many places are sparsely populated and wild beasts are swarming.
Walking on the wilderness at night, unless it is a large group, it is very dangerous for four or five people to walk together, and it is very dangerous to enter the stomach of a wild animal.
Dean Xu also considered this, and his face was a little ugly.
In the end, he sighed and said: "Oh, it's your fate too... You can live here if you want, but you can only live in Yizhuang. The accommodation fee is free, do you want to?"
"Yi Zhuang?" A man showed dissatisfaction, but was held back by the people beside him.
The bearded man nodded and smiled, "Yi Zhuang is also fine, the four strong young men are not afraid."
"Hmph, anyway, there are too many lice and it doesn't itch. We already have one, so we might as well live in a few more." Dean Xu glanced at them, then waved his hand and said, "Come here, someone, take them to Yizhuang."
The townsman took the four of them to Yizhuang and left.
In the courtyard, Su Mo and several people were introducing each other. After all, there must be basic etiquette.
The bearded man's name is Chen Mu. A relative in the family made a fortune in Yangcheng, so this time he is planning to go and join him.
The one in white clothes is called Duan Xilong, he has a strong figure and a lot of strength, and he went to defect with Chen's mother.
The thin one in blue clothes is Han Feng, who has studied for several years and wants to go to Yangcheng to find a job.
The last one who didn't seem to speak much was named Chang Shijie, who simply said that he went to Yangcheng for business, and didn't reveal much about the rest.
The four of them were all from Lucheng, so they walked together, and it was good to have someone to take care of them on the way.
Hearing Su Mo introduce himself as a Taoist priest of Maoshan, the four of them didn't pay much attention to it, although they had strange expressions on their faces.
In this era, many Taoist disciples descended into the world of mortals, and Taoist monks and the like spread all over the world.
Zhao Tu took them to an empty house, and as soon as he opened the door, a puff of smoke and dust came in his nostrils.
"This room was originally used to store sundries, but it has been abandoned for a long time because it has not been used. Let's be wronged tonight. There is really no time in Yizhuang."
Zhao Tu said slightly apologetically.
"It's okay." The leading mother Chen waved her hand: "How can a man be so particular when he goes out, the old man will prepare four bedding for us, and we will clean this place."
The mobility of the four strong young men was pretty good, and the room was cleaned as soon as night fell.
And Zhao Tu's quilt was also brought over.
"Gentlemen, I don't know if Master Xu has reminded you, I still have to say it again, never go out at night!"
Zhao Tu looked at the four people and said seriously: "If you feel bored, you can walk around the yard. The hut is also in the corner of the yard. But you must not leave the Yizhuang!"
"No matter what sounds you hear tonight, don't worry about it, go to bed honestly, and pack up your things and leave as soon as it dawns tomorrow morning."
The burly Duan Xilong asked: "That Dean Xu also told us this, old man, why are your town's customs so strange? Could it be that there are still ghosts at night?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Zhao Tu quickly interrupted him: "Don't ask so many questions, this is the custom of the town, anyway, you will leave early tomorrow morning, go to sleep at ease."
After speaking, he walked out of the room.
As the door closed, the four of them also began to mutter.
"What the hell kind of place." Han Feng murmured while arranging the books in the package, "I'm still not allowed to go out at night, so I don't know what the hell is going on."
"Yes." Duan Xilong also echoed: "Let us live in Yizhuang...Although we are not rich, we can still afford the money to live in restaurants!"
"Okay, stop complaining."
Mother Chen, the leader, said: "Sleep honestly, why bother so much? And it's midnight, why are you going out to find the soul?"
It was the last Chang Shijie who put his package in the corner, then pulled up the quilt to cover his body, and slowly closed his eyes.
in the next room.
Su Mo stared at the moon outside, as if quietly waiting for something. .
Chapter 159
There was no knock on the door tonight.
This made Su Mo a little disappointed. Looking at the sky outside, he slowly closed his eyes.
However, he circulated his true energy to his ears and listened carefully to the voices next door.
He had a hunch that these young men were likely to die tonight.
Sure enough, as the ears became more sensitive, the voice next door fell into Su Mo's ears clearly.
"Hey, Mother Chen, Mother Chen." In the darkness, Duan Xilong got up, walked to Mother Chen by the moonlight, and shook his shoulders.
"What are you doing?" Mother Chen opened her eyes in a daze.
"Are you really not curious?"
"What are you curious about?" Mother Chen sat up and put on her coat.
Duan Xilong pointed out the window: "Of course I'm curious about the outside. They insisted on not letting us go out. They must be doing something shady at night. Why don't we sneak out and take a look."
"Are you sick?" Chen's mother looked at him helplessly: "Why do you care so much? Sleep honestly, and you have to hurry tomorrow morning."
After speaking, he pulled the quilt and prepared to lie down again.
But Duan Xilong pulled him up again: "I didn't ask you to do anything, we just sneaked out to have a look, and we'll be back in half an hour at most, don't delay."
Chen's mother smiled helplessly: "You are full, right? Just because of a few words from others, you have to ask the bottom line?"
"How do you talk?" Duan Xilong frowned: "Okay, then go to sleep, I will go out and have a look later."
Looking at the other party's appearance, Chen's mother finally nodded and said: "Forget it, let's go together later, as you said, just take a look and we will come back."
After all, he was also very curious in his heart.
"Come on!" Duan Xilong smiled and patted Chen Mu on the shoulder: "I'll call you later, you're still awake, we'll be found if we slip out."
Hearing the neighbor fell silent again, Su Mo also withdrew his true qi.
He didn't intend to persuade anything at all.
Both Head Master Xu and Zhao Tu have persuaded him more than once. If he insists on dying, then no one else can blame him.
Soon, the sound of gongs and drums sounded again.
Su Mo felt it quietly, the sound outside was normal.
It seems that the weird music last night was indeed not played by humans.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door of Yizhuang.
The old boy Zhao Tu was frightened last night, so he only dared to open the door after looking for Su Mo.
Headmaster Xu stood outside the door, looking inside: "Is everyone here?"
"They're all here, they're all here." Zhao Tu quickly responded, "I've told you everything, don't worry."
"That's fine."
Headmaster Xu also saw the four heads protruding from the opposite room at this moment, nodded and said: "I'm watching everything, I'm going to preside over the sacrifice."
Watching the sacrificial procession walk away, Zhao Tu also closed the wooden door, and said to Su Mo, "I'm sorry to trouble you, go back to sleep."
Time passed silently.
Su Mo sat cross-legged in the room, watching the moon in the sky stained with blood, and then gradually turned red!
A crazy evil thought emanated from the moon.
Under such a night sky, even an ordinary ghost may soon become a ghost!
In a town like Qingfeng Town, there are still tens of thousands of people, so birth, old age, sickness and death are inevitable.
However, Su Mo couldn't feel the slightest breath of ghosts in the town.
The thing that knocked on the door yesterday was definitely not a human being, but it didn't look like an ordinary ghost either.
In the next room, Duan Xilong's voice sounded again.
"How to say?"
"What else can I say." Mother Chen sighed: "Let's go quickly. It's late at night, and most of them are probably asleep. Let's go early and return early."
"I know you are loyal enough!"
Duan Xilong grinned, hammered Aunt Chen's chest, but looked at Han Feng who was still reading next to him: "Hey, Han Shuner, what do you say?"
Han Feng didn't even lift his eyes: "My name is Han Feng, can you stop giving people nicknames? If you want to go, go, I won't accompany you."
"What do you want to accompany or not?" Duan Xilong sneered: "If you don't dare, just say you don't dare, why are you talking about those things in a polite way?"
"Who do you think dare not?" Han Feng put down the books: "I just don't want to go."
"Hey, coward."
Duan Xilong glanced at him contemptuously, and began to put on his clothes.
"You..." Han Feng blushed, and finally dropped the book: "Isn't it just to go out and have a look? I often go out at night, walking."
Duan Xilong laughed.
But Mother Chen glared at him, but in the end she didn't say much, it wasn't a big deal after all.
It was Chang Shijie who was sleeping in the corner, Duan Xilong gave him a fearful look, but in the end he didn't bother him.
Although this person didn't talk much, he couldn't hide the fierce aura on his body.
And Mother Chen even said in private that Chang Shijie may have killed someone!
This made Duan Xilong never dare to provoke him.
The three of them tidied up, put on their clothes, and sneaked out through the window. The door remained closed.
What they didn't expect was that Su Mo was standing at the door, as if he had been waiting for them here.
". Xiongtai." Mother Chen cupped her hands: "You also want to go out for a walk? Why don't you go together."
"Thank you for your kindness, I won't go." Su Mo refused straight away, but waved at him: "Brother Chen, come here, I want to ask you for a favor."
Mother Chen walked towards Su Mo without doubting him.
Su Mo grabbed his shoulders, pretending to be intimate, but quietly stuffed ten paper figurines and talismans into his hands.
"After you go out later, every kilometer you walk, find a hidden place and put the paper doll down... Remember, it must be hidden enough, preferably a place like the corner of an alley, where the space can accommodate a normal people."
"Every time you put down a paper figurine, you tear off a talisman."
The limit distance for Apparatus is 5000 meters, but Su Mo ordered it in kilometers to be on the safe side.
"This..." Chen Mu was a little dazed for a moment.
After all, Su Moti's request was indeed too strange.
At this moment, Su Mo took out a gold bar and stuffed it into his pocket like this: "After the matter is completed, when you come back, I will give you another (Li Liaohao) gold bar."
"So don't try to fool me. I have a way to tell if you have followed my request, otherwise this gold bar will be out of your favor."
No matter what era it is, gold will always be a valuable item.
Feeling the heavy weight of the gold bars in her pocket, Mother Chen finally took the paper figurine and talisman and nodded heavily: "Brother Su, don't worry!"
"Are you ready?" Duan Xilong called in a low voice impatiently in the distance.
"Here we come." Mother Chen glanced at Su Mo, then turned and walked towards them.
Watching several people leave over the wall one by one, Su Mo also turned his head and walked quietly towards Zhao Tu's room.
