Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 654 Hundred Ghosts Night Walk
We thanked him, but of course we didn't tell him more details.

"I advise you not to go." He was holding a biscuit, with deep disgust in his eyes!

I'm afraid that many of the food Minister Hou prepared for him these years are biscuits. After all, such things can be stored for a long time, which are convenient for transportation and can suppress hunger.

I took the biscuit from his hand, handed him the porridge made by Professor Xu and Miss Qiu, and asked him why he advised us not to go.

"Have you ever heard of the Night Walk of the Hundred Ghosts?" He lowered his voice, his pale face matched with the mysterious voice, making him seem like a ghost in hell.

I laughed dryly and said, aren't you joking?The Night Walk of the Hundred Ghosts is not just a myth.

It is said that at midnight in the middle of July, there will be a group of ghosts traveling at night, and no strangers will be seen within a hundred feet. So far, I have never heard of anyone who has seen a group of ghosts traveling at night and survived.

Jingsheng was mysterious, saying that there was a fire in Lishan a few days ago, he thought something big happened, and when he came out, he saw the flames all over the sky.

"There was a shrill cry in the fire, like a ghost, it must be the karmic fire from hell." Jing Sheng's pupils were full of fear.

He was born by the passage and was in awe of nature, so the sudden fire burned the whole mountain, and he heard the screams again, so he felt that Lishan must have turned into hell, and we must not go there now.

"elder brother……"

"Call me Jingsheng!"

Jingsheng was a little excited, Hou Chengcheng immediately changed his words, and said with a smile: "We have to go and have a look, it's okay, don't say there are no ghosts, there are, these people sitting next to you are all experts in exorcising ghosts, I guarantee they can keep you safe."

Jingsheng also smiled, saying that those who can enter the tunnel must not be ordinary people.

Jingsheng persuaded a few more words, but seeing that we had no intention of retreating, he let it go, saying that since you are going, you must be prepared, after all, the ghost should still be in Lishan, because he can often hear the screaming cry.

After we finished dinner, it was rare for Jingsheng and Hou Chengcheng to see each other again, so naturally we wanted to reminisce about the old days together.Seeing that Hou Chengcheng ignored him, Yazai came over to discuss with me about Professor Xu.

But as soon as he opened his mouth to explain his purpose, Professor Xu snatched him away, saying that he had something to do with him. I shrugged and gestured to him helplessly, telling him to ask for blessings.

Yazai took out his sunglasses from his pocket, and he looked like he was indestructible when he put on the sunglasses.

I was just going to rest when Old Smoke and Gophers came in.

"Chang'an, what do you think?" Lao Yan asked in a daze.

I didn't know why and asked him what I thought, he pointed to the outside, and said in a low voice that it was the strange thing about Lishan mentioned by Jingsheng.

I shook my head in embarrassment, I can't explain clearly, the reason for the fire in Lishan is probably not simple, although this place is not far from Lishan, but the shrill voice that can reach here sounds scary.

Lao Yan nodded and said that he felt the same way, either Jing Sheng had hallucinations, because he was somewhat mentally ill, or he was lying to us.

"The former." The Gopher said decisively: "It doesn't make any sense for him to lie to us, it will only make us more wary of Lishan, which is of no benefit to him, right?"

Lao Yan hummed, saying that he also thought it was the former.

"No," I stared at the void: "Don't you think what he said is true? The fire of karma burns away the sins of the world, and the shrill voice is the last cry of the ghost before it twists..."

Lao Yan pushed me: "What are you talking about?"

I just felt my heart flutter, and then I looked away, saying that I didn't know, just now there was a scene of the Lishan fire in my mind, and the scene of the ghosts being burned and scattered.

Lao Yan looked like he didn't know what to say, then he looked at me and asked if it was me, what would I do next?
"What else to do, naturally go to Lishan Mountain! After all, we have already arrived at the foot of Lishan Mountain, and it is only half a day's journey from the map. If we go there, we will be able to solve all the puzzles, otherwise we will guess here. It’s useless to go.” I lay down on the window sash and stayed in the passage for two days, my whole body smelled bad, I finally washed it off, I just wanted to have a good rest.

Lao Yan looked at me helplessly and said, "Sure, rest here for the night and leave early tomorrow morning."

I hummed, and made a gesture to ask them to go out. Lao Yan scolded why you are becoming more and more unruly, and pulled the gopher out of the house.

As soon as they left, I jumped off the bed, and after making sure no one was paying attention to my side, I took off the Xuan Tianzhu from my neck.

I held Xuan Tianzhu in my hand and looked at it slowly, this thing is definitely not simple!
Hou Chengcheng was cheated by Minister Hou. She was not sick, but was pulled out as a shield, and then used Xuan Tianzhu to trick her to Mount Li, and asked her to follow us to bring Jingsheng back.But if she was cheated, does it mean that the power spread by Xuan Tianzhu is not there?

I held Xuan Tianzhu in my hand and looked over it over and over again, but I only felt that it was just a transparent bead, and I couldn't see anything else.

Why can't I use it at all as a member of the Liu family?

I put the Xuan Tianzhu back on in distress, only feeling restless, the things hidden in the Xuan Tian Bead moved my heart.Although I don't know what it hides, I believe that what is regarded as the status symbol of the Black Spirit Star Officer is definitely not so simple.

"Forget it, don't think about it!" I rubbed my hair irritably, staring at the roof with my head empty, and it took a long time before I slowly calmed down.

One day I will be able to discover the secrets inside!

I don't know if I was too tired, but I fell asleep quickly even though I still had a lot of things hidden in my heart.

Tick, tick...

The sound of dense raindrops falling on the roof made me sleep more peacefully.

No, it's raining?

I slowly opened my eyes, and I heard a sound like hailstones hitting the roof. The roof was in disrepair for a long time, and it was made of wood. Some places had cracked, and the moonlight could still penetrate.

moonlight?

I jumped out of bed, rushed to the window and looked out.

The moonlight was like water, the outside was as bright as day, and there was no trace of rain, but the sound of ticking on the roof was still heard.

I clenched my hands, slowly lowered my breath, and looked up from where the moonlight came through.

nothing...

But the voice kept drilling into the ears like a magic barrier.

It's not a hallucination, I'm so conscious now, it can't be a hallucination.

I tiptoed out the door with only a gun, not even a flashlight.

There is a small yard outside the door of the wooden house. As soon as I rolled out the door, I rolled into the corner of the small yard. Above this corner is the roof. If there is something, I can feel it immediately.

tick...

The sound like raindrops sounded on the eaves again. I looked up and saw a thing the size of a fist crawling on the eaves. Every step I climbed had that kind of ticking sound, which made me feel hairy.

But this thing seems to only climb on the roof and never come down, so I didn't dare to shoot at will.

The sound of ticking ticking became clearer as the speed of this thing got faster and faster. I stayed under the eaves and looked up, but I could only see black shadows.

"Damn, fight!" I roared in my heart, and climbed up along the edge of the wooden house.
