Liao Zhai's Refining God

Chapter 205 Ask
"Brother, we brothers and sisters obey your request, let's go on the road together, we still have to go on the road." The woman said softly.

"Okay, if you really meet, you must answer according to what I said, don't make a mistake, or you will lose your life." The traveler said.

"Okay, let's go, don't waste time." The warrior man said.

"Let's go, we can walk to the mountain temple before dark, stay there for one night, and walk out of Changshe Ridge at dusk the next day. This is the safest way." After the traveler finished speaking, he carried his burden and left walked out.Everyone followed silently and walked towards the mountain like a long snake.

The mountains are rugged, the official road is sometimes narrow and sometimes wide, and the trees on both sides are dense, and many places block the sun, making it look extremely gloomy.In addition to what the traveling merchant said earlier, everyone hurried on their way in silence.

Only the two warriors rushed on the road with the mentality of traveling in mountains and rivers. The man sometimes broke away from the official road and flew to the nearby mountain road to pick wild fruits for the woman to eat, and told some jokes from time to time to amuse them.

Wang Lin was at the back, following silently with a bookcase on her back, curious about what the traveler said so closely, and wondering what taboos there would be on this ridge.

"Xiongtai is a student studying abroad?" The scholar in front turned his head and cupped his hands.It seems that his physical strength is also good. After walking about ten miles, apart from being a little short of breath, he is not unable to keep up with the team.

"Yes, a scholar from the Jinhua Mansion has traveled so far." Wang Lin said with a smile.

"Xiaosheng is from Huiyang Mansion, and I am fortunate to have met my brother, very lucky, very lucky." The scholar said.

"Haha." Wang Lin smiled lightly and bowed her hands in return.

"Brother, what do you mean by what big brother wants to say?" the scholar whispered, obviously curious.

"Brother, don't be too curious when traveling, just do as the Romans do." Wang Lin persuaded kindly.

"Maybe it's some nonsense rumors about mountain goblins and ghosts harming people. If scholars of my generation believe in such words, wouldn't they be reading sage books for nothing?" Seeing Wang Lin's blunt persuasion, the scholar was a little displeased. With a cold snort, he turned around and continued walking indifferently, ignoring Wang Lin.Wang Lin smiled and didn't care, and continued to follow.

As night fell, I arrived in front of a mountain temple. The temple was not big, only about the size of three rooms. The wooden doors were already dilapidated, and the roof was also broken in several places. If it rained, it must be leaking, but most of them were still intact.The idol also collapsed, apparently the mountain god no longer exists.

Everyone silently looked for a place to sit down. The four traveling merchants found a seat at the innermost side, and Wang Lin found a seat by the wall on the right. There were two warriors, a man and a woman, at the door, probably because they were afraid of the smell inside. Smelly, so on the outside.

The man brought in a large smooth stone from outside and placed it at the main entrance, and took out a piece of soft animal skin from the bundle, and asked his junior sister to sit on it.

The man riding the donkey wanted to bring the donkey into the temple, but was stared at by the warrior man, and suddenly became a little timid, so he had to tie the donkey outside the mountain temple, under the dilapidated window. Sitting near the window sill, his donkey can be seen in the temple.

After such a long journey in a hurry, everyone was exhausted, so they hurriedly ate some dry food, drank some water and took a nap to rest on the spot.Although it is almost autumn now, the weather is still relatively hot, so there is no need to build a fire.

"Brother, the moon is so round tonight." The woman said as if the moon was shining on the top of the tree, and the earth was sprinkled with silver light.

"Junior Sister, it's a good time to enjoy the moon on the top of the tree, let's go out to enjoy the moon?" the man said.

"Okay!" The woman looked a little bored, nodded after a moment of thought.The man was overjoyed immediately, got up and was about to go out.

The traveler who had previously warned you not to talk too much suddenly changed his face, and hurried over, making gestures to tell the two of them not to talk or to go out.

"Go away, don't disturb my junior sister Yaxing." The warrior man shouted, seeing the traveling merchant persistently making gestures in front of them, reminding them not to speak, not to go out.But the warrior man didn't listen at all, instead he wanted to strike in a hurry.

"Son, where are you!" But at this moment, a miserable and abnormal call suddenly sounded in the mountain forest, it seemed far away, but at first it sounded very far away, but upon closer listening it seemed to be nearby.

The peddler's face changed drastically, and he quickly made two gestures, telling the two of them not to talk.Then he ran to the innermost part of the mountain temple and stayed with his brothers.

The two warriors were still surprised, although they had never traveled the rivers and lakes, they heard a lot of things about the rivers and lakes from their parents, so they naturally came to a conclusion.This kind of voice fluctuated from far to near, if it was a martial artist in the Jianghu, he would definitely be a master, and immediately silenced the two of them.

"Son, where are you?"

"Son, where are you?"

Not long ago, a woman in black came slowly in front of the mountain temple. She was dressed in black in the night, so she couldn't see clearly.But his unstoppable miserable screams made everyone's hair stand on end.

Which Jianghu warrior subconsciously pulled his junior sister to hide in the mountain temple, no longer near the door.Obviously, he was also afraid at this time.The female warrior was still a little curious, and stared at the woman with wide eyes. The man quickly grabbed her and motioned her not to stare.

Immediately, the situation in the temple became eerie and strange. Everyone dared not breathe loudly, and the oppressive atmosphere made people feel oppressed.

The woman entered the temple lightly. If you look carefully, you will find that there is still a very small distance between the soles of her feet and the ground, and she simply floated in.

"Have you seen my child?" She floated in front of the warrior man, staring at him with empty eyes.

"No!" The warrior man held the handle of the steel knife in his hand, his palm trembling slightly, but he still followed the traveler's instructions in a low voice.

"Have you seen my child?" The woman floated to the side of the warrior woman again and asked in the same tone.

The woman did not answer immediately, but carefully looked at the woman in front of her. At this moment, the tense atmosphere enveloped the entire mountain temple, and the four pedestrians retreated subconsciously, as if their hearts were about to jump out. .

"No!" After the warrior man pulled the woman with his hand without leaving a trace, the woman whispered extremely reluctantly.

For a moment, the four traveling merchants breathed a sigh of relief, showing the expressions of the survivors after a catastrophe.

"Have you seen my child?" The woman asked four traveling traders and the man riding a donkey one by one, and they all answered in a low voice: "No."

At this time, the only ones that the woman didn't ask were the scholar and Wang Lin.The four traveling merchants breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't think the two scholars had the guts to go against his will. After all, the scholars gave them the impression of being weak, so they naturally followed the crowd when they encountered such a strange incident.
