The two people outside the cave suddenly came to me in a blink of an eye. They opened their mouths and wanted to ask: "Who asked us brothers to come..." But before they could finish speaking, they saw me. , and then immediately changed his words: "Hey, it's you, sir! We are really destined to be together. What's the matter, why did you call us brothers here today?"
These two people are actually the same two from last time. They were the two agents I recruited outside the hospital in that small county.
I didn't waste any time, and immediately released the souls of those foxes, and then told the two ghosts about the origins of these souls. Seeing that I was taking care of their business, the two brothers immediately smiled and bowed to me to express their gratitude. Then he put shackles on these souls and turned around and left.
After the two ghosts left, Chongxi asked me: "Brother Yan, why don't you ask where Aunt Wulan's soul was taken? They are ghosts, and they must be the ones doing this kind of thing." You know!" Before I could say anything, my godmother stepped forward and knocked Chong Xi on the head and said, "Do you think the ghost messenger will tell you this? Do you know what 'life and death are determined by fate and wealth in heaven'? If they dare If I tell you, they will probably end badly!" Chongxi covered her head and said "Oh", and I nodded and said: "My godmother is right, they have their rules. If I ask casually, they will still Isn’t it embarrassing if I can’t say it?”
Now that the matter here has been resolved, we should continue to set off to find the soul of our godmother, so I waved behind me and told Xiaobaihua and the others to follow, and we were leaving. However, after waving behind me for a long time, no one responded. When I turned around and looked again, it turned out that Xiao Baihua and several other girls were all standing there with their eyes wide open and their mouths wide open! After a while, I heard a girl pointing in the direction of the cave entrance and asking me: "Sister, brother-in-law, what was that just now!" I was stunned, not because of her question, but because of the name she addressed me. Previously, they all called me "Young Master". I have just started to get used to this title. Why did they change it to "brother-in-law"? But it's right to think about it. For Wulan Manor, the godmother is the number one and the little white flower is the second number. Besides, these girls are really young and they are not called brothers-in-law.
I replied with embarrassment on my face: "It's a ghost, what else could it be? The one who escorted those goblins to hell." Hearing what I said, these girls obviously didn't know how to react. Even the little white flower was very excited. Dazed. In fact, this is human nature. This kind of thing is so subversive to the world view that it is really difficult for a normal person to accept it. But after all, these girls are all from horse bandits, and their psychological quality is not comparable to that of ordinary people. It only takes a cigarette to slow down. But after all, they were a bunch of girls. After they recovered, they started asking questions around my brother-in-law, which really annoyed me.
Xiao Baihua laughed on the side and said, "Our heads don't know about us yet, and Brother Yan's parents don't know about it either. Why did you decide for me first?" As soon as Xiao Baihua said these words, My godmother smiled: "Children, I will make the decision for you in this matter!" I quickly interrupted: "Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!"
After leaving the cave and getting on the horse, I was teased by these people all the way. Unconsciously, the trees in front of us began to become more and more dense. It seemed that they were far away from the previous place, and a valley appeared in front of us. I signaled everyone to slow down, and our horses moved back and forth among the bushes. At this time, there was no snow on the ground.
The girl walking in the front suddenly said "Huh?", then turned to look at me: "Brother-in-law, come and look, there is a skull here." We all went over looking for it, and saw only the broken part of a tree. A human skull was stuck on the branch. There was nothing strange in my spiritual eyes, and there was still dust and bird droppings on the skull. I breathed a sigh of relief and said to everyone: "It's okay, there is no danger here."
Lin Feng looked around and said to himself: "Who hung this up?" Chong Xi interrupted and said: "I heard that there is a kind of bird that catches prey and hangs it on the tree!" I shook my head and said: "If there really is such a bird, it would not only be a human head hanging on the tree, but there should also be a human skeleton under the tree. There is nothing under the tree now. This may be a hunter playing a prank! It is deliberately scary!" Several girls also talked about it. , "People who do this kind of prank are very wicked!"
Everyone just said something to each other and walked past the skull and continued to move forward. But for some reason, I always have a strange feeling in my heart, but I can't tell what is wrong.
When the sun went down, I reined in my horse and said to everyone: "It's getting dark soon. Let's start building shelter now. Otherwise, if we don't have a fire by the time it gets dark, it might be inappropriate." After hearing this, everyone got off their horses. Chongxi poked me and asked: "Logistics Minister, what are you going to eat tonight?"
When he asked me this question, I immediately realized, yes, I had always felt that something was wrong just now. This forest is too clean, there is not even the sound of birds! Not to mention there are any traces of wild beast activity! Thinking about it, I opened the spirit gourd and released the wolf spirit, intending to let the wolf spirit search for any wild beasts nearby. But unexpectedly, the wolf spirits who received the order did not leave. Instead, they circled in place and found no trace of living creatures at all! I was shocked. There are no animals living here. What does this mean? This shows that it is even more impossible for people to survive here. I am afraid this is not suitable for us to stay.
But then I thought about it, I have magic weapons, Brother Lin has martial arts skills, and Chong Xi is proficient in divination, what the hell are you afraid of? I shook my head and simply stopped thinking about the reason. I stood up and took back the wolf spirit and turned around to help light the fire. My heart says no matter what I say, just adapt to the situation. No matter what the situation is, soldiers will come to block it, and water will come to cover it.
Before dark, the temporary shelter was built and the top was protected with dry shrubs. Since no prey has been found, I asked everyone to take out the dry food they brought with them and rest on their laurels first. Everyone gathered around the fire, eating dry food and drinking wine. The son of the east family is long, and the son of the west family is short. The girls no longer yelled and annoyed me. When Xiao Baihua and I sent dry food to the godmother, the godmother refused. The godmother said that she was a fairy with a hundred years of practice, and it would not be a problem if she did not eat one or two meals. I understand that my godmother is thinking about saving food for us. Although my godmother sounds like a village woman, she still has a good heart.
The fire was arranged in a long strip by Chongxi. It was lit in three places on the whole dead tree trunk. This guy can always come up with something new. I guess this guy is still dreaming about waiting for pheasants. How about he? Why did you make such a big triple fire
Xiao Baihua and I sat next to each other, and she kept asking me about my parents, such as what they like, what they like to eat, and so on. I answered them one by one.
After chatting for a long time, I remembered that I didn't seem to know Xiaobaihua's parents, so I asked: "What about your parents?" Unexpectedly, Xiaobaihua smiled and then told me that she was actually an orphan. My godmother adopted her and she is considered her adopted daughter. As for her biological parents, she has no idea at all. But Xiao Baihua thinks the same as me. For him, his godmother is her relative, and as for her biological parents, they are not that important to her.
Hearing what Xiao Baihua said, I sighed and said, "Hey, actually, I am not the same. Theoretically speaking, I am also an orphan. When my father picked me up, he was carried by an old man. Then At that time, the old man was seriously injured, and he just entrusted me to his father and died..." I told her what my father told me, and also told her that in fact, I didn't care about my biological parents. I don’t really care about the situation that much. But in the final analysis, even I don’t know why I have such thoughts.
A group of people were chatting all over the place, and suddenly I noticed that the flames in the campfire shook a few times, and then began to shake violently. The wind picked up, and there was a whistling sound in my ears. I said to myself that it was fortunate that my godmother's magic helped me to build such a small shack that could shelter from the wind. If there were only a few of us, it seemed that there would definitely be a northwest wind tonight.
But just as I was thinking wildly, the Shiyan Sword placed on my backpack suddenly fell to the ground with a clang, and then I heard a buzzing sound from the scabbard!
