In Zhang Yifeng's mind, this is the secular world. Even if there is a strong person, he should not be much stronger. Even if Xiaobai is not brought with him this time, he is still capable of protecting Meng Nichang. Besides, Meng Nichang's cultivation level has been upgraded to the level of foundation building.
At the eighth level, this level of cultivation is definitely not weak in the secular world and has few opponents.
"Don't the other girls know?" Zhang Yifeng asked again.
"I don't know, I didn't tell them."
"Okay, let's go then. It's late and I'm afraid something might happen to Zhao Long."
"Um."
Since the distance was not far, Zhang Yifeng called a driver and asked him to drive them to their destination.
Half an hour later, Zhang Yifeng arrived at a deep mountain.
Near the mountains, there is a row of residential houses. The houses are all made of wood and look antique.
It is not an exaggeration to say that those who live here are called the people of the mountains.
These people seem to have lived here for generations and have formed a small village. However, as the economy becomes more and more developed, those who still stay here are mostly middle-aged and elderly people.
However, in recent days, many young people in the village who went out to work have also come back. Because this place is going to be demolished, and such a big matter, young people naturally have to come back to deal with it and negotiate contracts with the people in Weiwo City.
At this time, an old man and many villagers greeted him at the entrance of the village early. They had received the news that only people from our city were coming to help them.
"Is it City Lord Zhang from Weiwei City? City Lord Zhang, you have to make the decision for us on this matter."
The old man held a cane and came to Zhang Yifeng with the support of the villagers.
Zhang Yifeng nodded lightly: "Don't worry, old man, I will handle this matter personally. Send two people to take me to that 'haunted' mountain."
"City Lord, let's take you there."
Before the old man could speak, two people wearing Weiwo City costumes walked out of the crowd. These were two Weiwo City soldiers.
"Are you following Zhao Long?"
Zhang Yifeng asked.
The two soldiers nodded: "We entered the mountain together with Master Zhao Long, but in different directions. When we finally came out, Master Zhao Long lost contact."
"Then take me to the location where Zhao Long and the others disappeared. By the way, what are your names?"
"My name is Shanwu, and this is my brother Shanzhiquan. City Lord, are you leaving now?"
"Let's set off now, I'm afraid something will happen to Zhao Long and the others if it's too late."
Zhang Yifeng bowed his hands towards the old man and the villagers, and then headed for the mountain under the leadership of two Weiwo City soldiers.
The mountain is not far from the village, and the village lives near the foot of the mountain.
Half an hour later, Shanwu's voice came, with a solemn look on his face: "City Lord, the place ahead is probably where Lord Zhao Long and the others disappeared."
Zhang Yifeng turned around and asked the two of them: "They all disappeared here? Are the villagers in the village also missing?"
"Well, almost all the contacts were lost around here. No matter how many times I called after that, no one answered. Some of the phones were even turned off."
"I understand, you can go back and leave this place to us." Zhang Yifeng said calmly.
"Ah? Shall we go back?"
The two soldiers looked at each other. Then Shanwu spoke again.
"City Lord, please let us follow you. We are also warriors and we are not afraid of danger."
Zhang Yifeng thought for a moment, and then said: "It's okay to follow. If you encounter danger, you leave first. Don't worry about us."
After finishing speaking, Zhang Yifeng took the lead and walked forward. Meng Nichang followed closely behind.
Along the way, Zhang Yifeng was cautious and carefully observed all possible clues.
However, to his disappointment, after searching for several hours, he found nothing, not even a pheasant or a rabbit.
"Zhang Yifeng, it's a little strange. It's so quiet here. There seems to be no living things."
Meng Nishang's frowning voice came.
Zhang Yifeng nodded and said seriously: "That's why there is a problem."
If it were an ordinary deep mountain, no matter how few animals there were, they would definitely have encountered a few pheasants and hares after searching for so long. However, after several hours, they had not encountered even an insect, let alone animals.
There is something weird.
There's definitely something weird here.
"City Lord, it's getting dark soon. Should we go back first? Come back tomorrow?"
The voices of Shanwu and Shanzhiquan came at the same time, and it was obvious that the two of them were getting nervous.
Because since someone disappeared, no one dared to come to this mountain at night.
Zhang Yifeng shook his head: "No need to go back, we will set up camp here tonight and we will spend the night here."
"Want to stay the night? OK!"
Although the two soldiers were a little scared, they would not give in. It would be embarrassing to give in in front of the city lord.
Soon, it became completely dark.
A group of four people set up two tents. Zhang Yifeng and Meng Nishang lived in one tent, and two soldiers lived in another tent.
At this time, several people did not sleep, but lit a bonfire and kept vigil together.
In the dark night, there was only the subtle crackling sound of the lit bonfire, no roar of wild beasts, no chirping of insects, not even the sound of wind, and it was filled with a strange tranquility.
The flames roared and danced, and the shadows of several people falling on the ground were like evil spirits coming out of their cages, twisting and deforming with their teeth and claws.
An ominous feeling slowly emerged in everyone's hearts.
"Zhang Yifeng..." Meng Nichang suddenly spoke.
"Did you feel it too?"
Zhang Yifeng looked at Meng Nishang and frowned slightly.
This atmosphere is really weird.
"City Lord, we also feel a little strange and feel very uncomfortable."
Shanwu's voice also came, and they also felt something unusual.
Shan Zhiquan on the side also nodded: "I feel the same way."
Zhang Yifeng stood up, surrounded by darkness, which was very depressing. He also felt very awkward, as if there was an eye looking at him in the endless darkness. But when he checked with his spiritual sense, there was nothing there.
.
If it were just one person, it could be said to be a coincidence that two people felt this way, but why would all of them feel this way at the same time?
Explain that there must be a problem here.
If there is really something spying on them in the dark without letting him discover it, it will definitely not be a beast. The breath of a beast is full of savagery and cruelty, but this kind of breath makes people feel depressed and uncomfortable.
, even fear.
This is an ominous feeling.
But, what exactly can make people feel like this?
"This...city lord, isn't there really a ghost?"
The voice of the Fountain of Goodness came again, and when it came to ghosts, it was inevitable that my scalp would go numb.
"Don't panic, it's probably because it's too dark. Shanwu, let's do this. You'll stay vigil in the first half of the night, and then switch to the Fountain of Goodness in the second half of the night. If anything goes wrong, speak up immediately. I'll come out as soon as possible."
Although Zhang Yifeng also felt uncomfortable, he couldn't show it because he was the lord of the city.
