"It's getting late. Everyone, hurry up and get some rest. Get up early tomorrow and get on your way."
So Jiang Minghao and his party all went back to their tents to sleep, leaving Ali and two of his men to keep watch outside, sleeping with each other.
It was already eleven o'clock in the evening, the surroundings were dark, the wind was very strong at night, and the leaves behind the trees were rustling. The bonfire in the yard was burning all the time, and there was a crackling sound of flames.
But today, everyone had been walking on a mountain road for a day, and feeling sleepy came over them. They didn’t even think about it so much and fell asleep.
I don't know how long it took, but Jiang Minghao, who was sleeping in the tent, suddenly heard the sound of "dong...dong..." drumming from outside, just like the joyful sound of gongs and drums during ancient weddings.
Jiang Minghao was woken up in a daze and sat up. Hearing the sound of gongs and drums coming from outside in the middle of the night, he felt something indescribably strange.
So he immediately opened the tent and walked out. A gust of wind blew in, making Jiang Minghao feel chilly all over. He couldn't help but shiver. But suddenly he found something was wrong around him. He didn't see Ali and the others keeping vigil, and he didn't know where to go.
Where is it?
But the strange sound of gongs and drums was getting closer and closer. Jiang Minghao, who was curious, couldn't help but walk to the door of the dilapidated courtyard. The surrounding area was pitch black, and waves of white mist were floating around. Then he saw a man wearing white clothes from the entrance of the village.
The team wearing strange costumes and moving strangely was slowly approaching, making Jiang Minghao's expression startled.
The white clothes, with their feet not touching the ground, were light and fluttery, as if they were little ghosts floating out of the underworld. Their faces were pale and expressionless, just like in the movie, looking at Shen in panic.
"Am I dreaming?"
Seeing such a strange scene, Jiang Minghao was completely confused.
He knew that there were unexplainable things in this world. Although he had encountered those evil spirits before, the scene in front of him was still so impressive, exactly like the scene of a kid getting married in "Natural History".
As the team got closer and closer, they saw only a man riding a paper mache horse, wearing a white coat, a large white flower on his chest, and a groom's official hat. With his pale and expressionless face, Jiang
When Minghao saw it, he was stunned and couldn't believe it: "Old Miao?"
This made Jiang Minghao startled, his eyes widened, and then he saw eight little ghosts behind him carrying a sedan, and sitting on it was a woman wearing white clothes. Shen Yunwei, wasn't she?
"Lao Miao marries a strange chivalrous girl?"
Jiang Minghao stared and shook his head in amusement: "It seems that I am really dreaming..."
"kill…"
But at the next moment, Miao Zhuoqi, who was riding a big paper horse with a ferocious expression, pulled out a big knife and charged at Jiang Minghao. He was so frightened that he stared and shouted: "Old Miao, what are you doing? Stop it now..."
"Take your life..."
Miao Zhuoqi, who had a pale and strange face, brandished a big knife in his hand and slashed at Jiang Minghao. Jiang Minghao jumped to avoid the knife. Miao Zhuoqi reined in the big paper horse, made a neighing sound, and turned around.
Kill him again.
Jiang Minghao raised his eyebrows and stared. He was completely confused now and thought he was dreaming. How else could he explain this scene?
Shen Yunwei, who was sitting on the sedan, also flew over. A long sword appeared in his hand. Jiang Minghao stabbed him without hesitation. He immediately turned around to dodge the sword, but then, Miao Zhuoqi came from behind on a paper mache horse.
He came up from behind and struck Jiang Minghao on the back with a knife, causing him to fall out with a plop.
"Hiss, it hurts..."
A chill ran down his back, and the pain immediately stimulated Jiang Minghao's nerves. In an instant, his eyes widened, looking at the inhuman Miao Zhuoqi and Shen Yunwei in front of him, and shouted: "Isn't this a dream?"
Immediately afterwards, I saw Molina, He Weijian, Cheng Lin, Ali, and Fatty Wu, Chen Bingqiangzi, appearing expressionlessly one by one, and surrounding Jiang Minghao. Their faces were all pale and expressionless, and they seemed They didn't look like humans at all, but seemed to be possessed by evil spirits. Jiang Minghao frowned, wondering why they became like this.
"Damn it, why are you so unlucky?"
However, Jiang Minghao found that he could not circulate the energy in his dantian, and Miao Zhuoqi, Shen Yunwei, Molina and the others were pressing towards him, which made Jiang Minghao anxious and did not give him any thought about what was going on. Miao Zhuo Qi rode a big paper horse and slashed again with a long knife.
Jiang Minghao endured the pain in his back, turned around, climbed over the wall and ran into the yard, but a scene suddenly changed in front of his eyes. He only saw an old man wearing a white gown, with short white hair and a friendly face. Jiang Minghao was stunned and couldn't believe it: "Grandpa..."
"Xiaojiang."
The old man showed a gentle smile. Jiang Minghao stared blankly at this familiar grandfather and said, "Is this true?"
"Haha, grandpa is not dead yet, come here and show him."
The old man opened his hands and smiled peacefully. Jiang Minghao looked helpless and stepped forward involuntarily. But suddenly the old man's face suddenly changed, and his ferocious smile turned into a wild smile: "Jiang Minghao, take your life..." "
Jiang Minghao's expression changed drastically. He was hit by the palm of Zodiac Five and flew away. He fell to the ground hard and spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a clear drumbeat vibrated in his ears. Jiang Minghao's spirit was roused. The scene in front of him suddenly changed. It was a familiar dilapidated yard. Miao Zhuoqi, Shen Yunwei, Molina, Cheng Lin, He Weijian, Fatty Wu and the others , seemed to have lost his mind and was struggling there like crazy. This scene made Jiang Minghao startled and his eyes widened.
"You actually woke up."
A middle-aged man in a red robe looked at Jiang Minghao who had regained consciousness in front of him in surprise, and was slightly surprised.
"Psychedelic smoke!"
Seeing this middle-aged man with a strange face, Jiang Minghao smelled the smell of smoke spreading in the air, and immediately knew that this was a kind of psychedelic smoke that can make people lose their mind. It will make people fall into their own illusions, making it difficult to wake up. come over.
Therefore, what Jiang Minghao saw just now was just a fantasy caused by the psychedelic smoke, but the knife wound on his back.
Also, the high-five just now was real, because besides this middle-aged man, there were six young men and women, whom I thought were young travel companions before.
"Did you give us the hallucinogenic smoke?"
Jiang Minghao, who finally understood what was going on, stood up holding his injured left shoulder. He looked at the middle-aged man in red robes and his six disciples in front of him and said, "You are from Wandu Sect. people?"
"Haha, it seems you know about our Wandu Sect."
Du Yezi had a sinister smile on his face, glanced at Jiang Minghao with disdain, and pointed at Miao Zhuoqi and the others who were wrestling with each other in the yard, still trapped in their own hallucinations. The two guarantees had already been killed and were lying on the ground.
"So, you are here for the Three Emperors Token again." Jiang Minghao squinted his eyes. It seems that they have been targeting him for a long time.
"Boy, now that you've been hit by my hallucinogenic smoke, you won't be able to regain your vitality at all, so if you don't want to die, just hand over the Three Emperors Token." Du Yezi said with a sinister smile.
Jiang Minghao asked out of curiosity: "You, the Wan Du Sect, are masters of poison, why don't you just go ahead and poison us directly so that you can get the Three Emperors Token?"
Du Yezi glanced at him and said with a smile, "The Mo family in Kyoto is not easy to mess with."
