After walking for about seven or eight minutes, Yin Xiu followed Aunt Ling Xueyan to the leisure resort not far away in Shajing Village. ∷∷,
However, there seemed to be no tourists in this leisure resort at this time, and it seemed a little deserted.
Ling Xueyan also looked at it with slight surprise, and then she couldn't help but asked: "Auntie, why didn't you see anyone in the resort today? It's not the time when students are on summer vacation. Logically speaking, there should be a lot of people. Yes!"
According to usual experience, this leisure resort will not be as deserted as it is now during the summer vacation.
Ling Xueyan's aunt couldn't help but sigh when she heard this, quietly looked around, then lowered her voice and said in a cautious whisper: "I'm telling you, don't spread it around, otherwise this thing in our family will The resort may not be able to continue its business..."
Hearing her aunt's serious words, Ling Xueyan nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, aunt, I promise I won't tell anyone."
After speaking, she raised her head and glanced at Yin Xiu beside her, and added, "I believe Yin Xiu will not talk nonsense."
Hearing this, Yin Xiu nodded lightly to Aunt Ling Xueyan and said, "From what you're saying, it seems like something happened at this resort?"
Aunt Ling Xueyan whispered: "Something happened. That's why the resort doesn't receive tourists at all these days, so as not to let anything happen again or even make the matter bigger."
"Auntie, what happened? Is it serious?" Ling Xueyan asked curiously.
Aunt Ling Xueyan took a deep breath and lowered her voice and said: "A'mountain ghost' appeared in the valley behind the resort a few days ago. There were seven or eight people camping there that night. Later, in the middle of the night, those people Suddenly I heard a strange little girl’s laughter.”
"Those people curiously came out of the tent to check the situation, but they saw a little girl about five or six years old, with a green light all over her body, sitting on a dark figure that looked like a big cat or a leopard, flying in the air. Yes. It scared those people quite a bit."
There was a slight pause. Ling Xueyan's aunt swallowed her saliva, took a breath, and then continued: "After hearing what those people who escaped from the camp told about this matter, your uncle and others didn't believe it at first. But in the next few days, then... The mountain ghost actually came to the resort, and many guests staying at the resort hotel said they heard the sound of a little girl laughing in the middle of the night."
"Moreover. Many people saw the little girl with green light all over her body appearing in the hotel corridor. According to those who saw it, she disappeared in a blink of an eye, and then suddenly appeared from above her head or elsewhere. He appeared out of nowhere and smiled at people..."
"In short, many people were scared to death. So many people said they saw it, so your uncle had to believe it even if he didn't believe it. In order to prevent the matter from spreading, or even someone getting into trouble, your uncle has suspended receptions these days. The tourist also asked someone to invite a master who is said to be very good to come over and do some magic to collect the mountain ghost. Now I don’t know what the specific situation is. The master came yesterday. "
Yin Xiu quietly listened to what Aunt Ling Xueyan said, and already had a rough guess in his mind. But what exactly happened needs to be seen to be sure.
There's no rush for this, I'll just investigate it later.
"So, this resort is owned by your family?" Yin Xiu asked curiously.
Aunt Ling Xueyan nodded and said, "This resort is jointly run by Xueyan's uncle and two other bosses. However, the two bosses are not from the village, so it is Xueyan's uncle who is usually in charge of the resort."
Aunt Ling Xueyan responded.
Yin Xiu nodded in understanding. No wonder Ling Xueyan's uncle's family could build such a big villa in this village. They are definitely 'rich'!
Ling Xueyan glanced at Yin Xiu beside him. Then he raised his head and asked his aunt: "Aunt, you just said that your uncle hired a very experienced master to do the practice. Is that master really that powerful?"
Aunt Ling Xueyan shook her head slightly, "I didn't know that. I heard from your uncle that the master planned to start a practice today. I don't know if it has started now..."
At this time, Yin Xiu suddenly said: "Don't worry. If you are right, the little girl with the green light that the tourists saw should not be a 'mountain ghost'. She should be a 'mountain spirit'!"
"Mountain spirit?"
Hearing Yin Xiu's words, Ling Xueyan and her aunt were both stunned. They all looked at Yin Xiu.
"How do you know? Do you also know these things?" Aunt Ling Xueyan looked at Yin Xiu curiously.
Even Ling Xueyan was a little surprised. She originally thought that Yin Xiu was a very powerful martial arts master. After all, she had witnessed this with her own eyes.
But I didn't expect that Yin Xiu seemed to know not only "martial arts", but also these gods and ghosts
However, since Yin Xiu said so. Ling Xueyan was still willing to believe Yin Xiu's words. After all, in her eyes, Yin Xiu was not an ordinary person. Since he said that, it was definitely not without purpose.
What's more, whether it was the rescue by Yin Xiu or this chance encounter, Ling Xueyan had a good impression of Yin Xiu. She also doesn't think Yin Xiu is the kind of person who makes random remarks without any target.
"Yin Xiu, what is that 'mountain spirit' you are talking about?" Ling Xueyan couldn't help but ask.
Yin Xiu glanced at Ling Xueyan and her aunt, and then said: "I am quite familiar with these things. As for what a mountain spirit is..."
After a slight pause, Yin Xiu continued: "You should all have heard of the so-called demons, monsters, mountain spirits and water monsters... these are the sayings. The mountain spirits I am talking about are the mountain spirits among the mountain spirits and water monsters."
"This thing is different from the mountain ghost you call. Although many people will confuse them, even many mages, Taoist priests and the like will also confuse them. However, in fact, the two still have certain differences. Of distinction and difference.”
"First of all, the mountain spirit itself is the spirituality of the mountain forest itself. It is bred and bred by gathering the natural aura of heaven and earth. It can be said that it is born and raised by the earth. It contains all the spiritual essence and essence of the entire mountain forest. It is a kind of approximate spiritual body. existence. You can think of 'mountains' as existences like 'elves'."
"Of course, this elf is not the elf in Western mythology, but the elf often mentioned in our Chinese mythology. Generally speaking, mountain elf will not take the initiative to harm people casually. Their thoughts are very pure and clean. It’s not an exaggeration to describe him as innocent or honest.”
"As for the 'mountain ghosts' you call, they actually belong to a branch of ghosts. Although they also appear in mountains and forests, mountain ghosts are not only derived from the gathering of evil spirits and evil spirits, but they are also caused by some accidental deaths in the mountains and forests. People are transformed by unwilling ghosts.”
"Usually, it is mountain ghosts rather than mountain spirits that harm people in the mountains and forests. Of course, if someone takes the initiative to provoke the mountain spirits, they may also suffer disaster... "
Yin Xiu's explanation made Ling Xueyan and her aunt involuntarily open their eyes.
It sounded a bit surprising, as if Yin Xiu's words opened a new door for them, allowing them to be exposed to some knowledge that they had never been exposed to before.
Aunt Ling Xueyan took a deep breath, looked at Yin Xiu, and said slowly: "It seems that you are also an expert, little brother?"
At first, she thought that Yin Xiu might have some kind of affair with her niece Ling Xueyan, but now after listening to Yin Xiu's words and her observations just now, she was already sure that her niece and the person in front of her were related. The handsome 'little brother' doesn't have the kind of relationship he imagined.
Yin Xiu nodded lightly and said, "That's right."
"But it's really surprising that there are mountain spirits in your mountains. Today's times are no different than in the past. In ancient times, things like mountain spirits were very rare. There are still some now. It seems like you have I'm afraid this mountain forest is not simple..."
As he spoke, Yin Xiu couldn't help but look up at the mountains behind the resort, feeling quite emotional.
He used his spiritual sense to check just now, and found no presence of the mountain spirit except for an old Taoist priest with gray beard and gray hair decorating the altar in a valley behind.
However, Yin Xiu did not doubt what Aunt Ling Xueyan said. Because although he didn't directly find any traces of the mountain spirit, he did notice something strange in the mountains behind Shajing Village.
There is an inner area in the mountain that Yin Xiu's spiritual consciousness cannot detect. If nothing else, the mountain spirit should be hiding in that area.
It is very possible that the reason why this place was able to give birth to a naturally raised 'elf' like the mountain spirit is because of certain factors in that area.
Otherwise, it would not be so easy for an existence like a mountain spirit to be born casually.
It was also because of this discovery that Yin Xiu became very interested. I plan to get to the bottom of it and see why mountain spirits can be born here, and the interior of the mountain can shield my own spiritual consciousness...
What Yin Xiu said about the mountain spirit certainly amazed Ling Xueyan's aunt, but it also made her relax a little.
If that mountain spirit really does what Yin Xiu said and would not take the initiative to harm others, this would be quite reassuring. Before, she was a little worried about whether the 'mountain ghost' would come to the village and harm people in the middle of the night.
There is always some uneasiness in my heart.
Now Yin Xiu's words gave her some psychological comfort.
After chatting for a while, Ling Xueyan's aunt brought Yin Xiu and others to the resort's office. However, there was only one administrator in the office, and Ling Xueyan's uncle was not in the office.
When Aunt Ling Xueyan asked, she found out that Ling Xueyan's uncle had gone to the valley behind with the master invited yesterday... (To be continued.)
