"The sky is spirited, the earth is spirited, the corpses are driven away in Xiangxi, and the strangers are avoided——"

"Bang--"

"Bang--"

The monotonous and harsh sound of the gong sounded on the mountain road on a rainy night, like the neighing of an old crow, sending chills down one's spine.

The orange-red 'lights' flickered like ghost fires in the mountains and wild graves, illuminating the rugged and narrow mountain road - different from when they went up the mountain, they were taking another mountain road now. This road was narrower and more difficult to walk, and it was close to the mountain.

Built against a wall, only one person can pass through.

One side is a steep mountain wall, and the other side is a steep and deep valley. If you fall, you will die!

The cold wind blew from the mountain stream, like ghosts crying and wolves howling, and the ferocious shadows of the trees were like the skinny claws of ghosts, caging on everyone's head. Wuluo Mountain is remote and rarely inhabited, and is full of large tracts of virgin forest. They took this path

I don't know how many years ago corpse exterminators opened it up, but now it is overgrown with weeds, the stone slabs are covered with moss, it is still raining, and the road is extremely slippery.

Yu He'an didn't dare to raise his head, and his shoulders draped by the corpse were so stiff that he couldn't feel anything at all. His whole body was trembling. Looking forward, there were corpses, and behind him, there were corpses. There was only a monotonous sound of gongs.

After walking for a long time, Yu and An would even have the illusion that all their teammates had disappeared, leaving him alone among the corpses!

He finally couldn't help it anymore and stretched his neck eagerly to look ahead to see if his teammates were still there. But suddenly, a black shadow hung silently from the cliff next to him, like a hanging rope, hanging over Yu and An.

In front of me, it was as if he had stretched out his neck to hang himself!

"ah--!!!"

"Bang!"

Wei Xun noticed the chaotic noise coming from behind the team. After a while, he heard Lin Xi send a message to Miao Fangfei, saying that Yu Hean mistook the mountain vine for a hanging rope and fell down in fright. It was nothing serious.

Miao Fangfei did not ignore any 'little things', and said with a stern face: "Let everyone put the cooling pill in their mouths and be energetic for the rest of the way!"

Qingliangdan is a homemade Miao medicine made by Miao Fangfei using mint, Tianjihuang, snake strawberry and other herbs. The effect of any props will be weakened in Zuimei Xiangxi, but this homemade Miao medicine can have a greater effect.

Wei Xun also received a small bottle provided by Miao Fangfei. The black pills were as big as jelly beans and had a refreshing sensation when smelled.

After all this trouble, the team's marching speed inevitably slowed down a bit. Wei Xun rarely had the experience of walking in the mountains at night. It may be due to the effect of physical alienation. Wei Xun felt that his whole body was full of strength, and he didn't feel any pain after walking for so long.

Tired. He was as enthusiastic as taking a primary school student on an outing, holding the flag with his left hand, and holding Ping Ping's Bloody Dagger in his pocket with his right hand.

The dagger was burning hot, and the corpses following the corpse exorcism team were getting closer and closer.

Although they are afraid of Pingping's resentment, from the moment they came out of Xiaolong Yizhuang, whether it's because the resentment on the dagger has been weakening, or the resentment of the corpses is getting stronger, the distance between them and the brigade has been shortening, and I'm afraid it's reaching

There must be a battle between the two sides before the Fierce Bone Plank Road.

Um?

Suddenly, Wei Xun stopped. Miao Fangfei, who was following him, also braked hard, and soon the entire brigade came to a stop. The sudden disappearance of the gong sound made Wuluo Mountain even more eerie and quiet, and the rustling rain

The sound was like the whispers of ghosts.

"Miao Fangfei, have you seen it?"

Miao Fangfei, who was just following Bingjiu and alert to her surroundings, felt nervous and hurriedly followed the direction pointed by Bingjiu's guide flag. A closer look made her scalp tingle.

"Then, what is that?"

A ferocious dark shadow slants deep from the mountain wall, straddling the mountain road, like a dark, skinny giant claw protruding from the cliff. The finger bones are long and ferocious, trying to stop everyone who tries to leave Wuluo Mountain!

Miao Fangfei's scalp felt numb. When she looked carefully, she realized that it was a strange wild pepper tree growing in the cracks of the mountain wall.

What was most horrifying to her was that the dead tree was densely covered with strings of thin chains, with pale bones attached to the ends of the chains, which looked like human finger bones if you looked closely!

When the cold wind blows, the finger bones sway like human bone wind chimes, sending chills all over the body.

But there are rotting corpses blocking the road behind. They can't go back and find another road. They have to pass through here!

"Zanthoxylum bungeanum, finger bones, finger bones, finger bones -"

Miao Fangfei quickly woke up from the panic, fell into deep thought, and murmured to herself. Suddenly her eyes lit up: "The missing middle finger bone of the rotting corpse!"

"The rotting corpse cannot leave Wuluo Mountain. This, this is a curse."

According to legend, a large area of ​​wild pepper trees grows in front of Wangchuan River, blocking the souls who want to avoid drinking Meng Po soup and escape back to the world. Zanthoxylum bungeanum trees, especially the hundred-year-old wild pepper trees, are used to make witchcraft tools in the hands of Miao elders.

With good materials, it is said that it can trap resentful souls.

Although this is just a legend, the clever Miao Fangfei immediately connected the legend with reality. The missing finger bones of the rotten corpse and the finger bones hanging on the wild pepper tree. This curse was aimed at the group of corpses behind them. As long as they passed here as soon as possible,

Maybe the corpse group will be stopped!

"good."

Bingjiu whispered. Hearing his approval, Miao Fangfei felt emotions she had never felt before in her heart, like pride, complexity, and fear. She felt that she was not good enough for Bingjiu to praise her so suddenly - Bingjiu suddenly

Praising her must be intentional!

"Miao Fangfei, you are very good."

Before Miao Fangfei could react, Wei Xun slowly praised, "I can rest assured that the brigade will be left to you."

Wha, what??

Miao Fangfei was tense all over and couldn't believe her ears. What Bingjiu meant was——

"You go first."

Bingjiu's chuckle was like a devil whispering: "I'll be back in a minute."

He's leaving the team!

Miao Fangfei's pupils shrank suddenly. At this moment, the fear in her heart was heavier than seeing the corpse being replaced! Bingjiu was leaving the team at this time! He, he said, he said he would hand over the team to her. This was Bingjiu.

A test? A test of her loyalty?

She should refuse, no matter what the reason, she couldn't do it, how could she-

"Miao Fangfei, I believe you can do it."

He said he believed her, but, but she——

call--

At this moment, the wind and rain suddenly became stronger, as if someone had taken a breath. The smell of rain and rotten branches and leaves hit our nostrils. The wind caused the wild pepper trees to shake violently, and the thin chains on the branches kept colliding with each other.

Like a human bone wind chime. Suddenly, the thin branches seemed to be finally overwhelmed by the load, broke off from the wild pepper tree, rolled into the canyon with several chains, and disappeared in an instant.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The rapid sound of gongs came from behind the team, and it was Zhao Hongtu who was urging him anxiously. Sure enough, as the curse began to collapse, the corpses behind him moved again. Miao Fangfei's face turned pale at first, and then she forced herself to calm down. The wild pepper tree was standing there.

It was crumbling in the strong wind, and they had to quickly pass by it before it was completely broken, so as to distance themselves from the group of corpses behind it!

Bingjiu stepped aside and got out of the way of the mountain road. The corners of his lips were slightly raised, as if he was watching her.

Bingjiu believes her!

Miao Fangfei bit her lower lip hard, and the severe pain made her calm down instantly. Miao Fangfei rarely raised her head and looked at Bingjiu. The moment their eyes met, unprecedented emotions filled her heart.

It's like a shepherd dog that is trusted by its owner and given the responsibility of guarding the sheep. It's also like, something you can't even imagine in your dreams, the tour guide and the tourists work together to overcome many difficulties.

"Waiting for your return."

She nodded solemnly to Bingjiu like an oath, took the tour guide brooch from his hand, and strode forward without hesitation.

Wei Xun stood quietly on the side of the road holding the tour guide's flag, watching the corpse exorcism team go away one by one. The night rain fell on the bronze mask, which made it even colder. He slightly lifted the mask and breathed a sigh of relief.

His overly pale skin looked a bit ghostly, like a mountain spirit sucking people's souls in the old forest.

"To be honest, you are not being fair."

Wei Xun changed the tour guide flag to his left hand.

He was thinking just now that he would stay with the brigade and continue. Could this be considered a tourist leaving the brigade?

If it counts, he will have more good ways to use the guide flag in the future.

But Goubi Hotel will not let him take advantage of this loophole.

[Tour guide Bingjiu, please return to the team within fifteen minutes, otherwise your salary for this trip will be deducted!]

[Tour guide Bingjiu, please return to the team within fifteen minutes, otherwise your salary for this trip will be deducted!]

"Fifteen minutes, it's really terrible."

Wei Xun stood on the mountain road holding the tour guide's flag, the corner of his mouth slightly raised.

"Forget it, you should come together. Come one by one, I'm afraid there won't be enough time."

"Hey——!"

"嘤——!!!"

On the branches of the wild peppercorns, dozens of pairs of scarlet blood eyes lit up in the darkness. The eyes of hatred and hatred burst out, pointing directly at Wei Xun. On this wild peppercorn tree, there were actually a dozen corpse-turned flying foxes entrenched!

Most of the zombie flying foxes have chains wrapped around their claws. They are integrated with the curse on the wild pepper tree, binding the corpses and making them unable to leave for the time being.

but--

A huge black shadow flew silently from the tree crown, like a piece of black cloth drifting in the wind. With a buzz, the guide flag was suddenly heavy, and the still bright light dimmed instantly.

Tick ​​tock.
