Dragon Seeker

It goes without saying that he was in trouble, and everyone saw it.

But the words "bad luck" were there, and Lao Bai's words were a bit intriguing.

"Could it be that he was just unlucky, and it was completely an accident?"

I couldn't help but think so in my heart.

"When people are sitting in the car, disasters will come from the sky!"

Lao Bai did not keep the secret and said directly: "We forgot to check the almanac when we went out, and we happened to catch up with the birthday of the Mountain Ghost King when we entered the mountain. There was a banquet for hundreds of ghosts here, and there was a ghost market, which blocked the road."

I know mountain ghosts. They are not necessarily human beings. All living creatures may become mountain ghosts. They died accidentally in the extremely yin place in the mountains when they were alive. After turning into ghosts, they were not taken to the underworld by the ghost messenger because of the protection of the extremely yin place. They stayed in the mountains, swallowed the sun and moon, and gradually merged with the mountains, becoming the leader of a certain area. Most of the mountain gods mentioned by the people are this kind of thing. In fact, they are dead things that have become Tao. They are powerful and make things difficult for passers-by. The common people don't know the origin, so they simply regard them as gods.

This kind of thing has long existed in folk legends. Qu Yuan wrote about mountain ghosts in Nine Songs.

According to what the little sparrow said, there is a mountain ghost here. The four or five hills around are all its territory, and it has been bullying here.

"What year?"

When he heard it was a mountain ghost, Brother Yaozi hesitated.

"It's hard to say."

Lao Bai said: "Anyway, the power of this mountain ghost is extremely great. The mountain spirits and lonely ghosts in the entire Luliang Mountain are very convinced of it. When they heard that the Mountain Ghost King was going to hold a birthday, they all came to congratulate him. Gradually, a ghost market was formed here, and it was very lively every night."

Brother Yaozi immediately stopped his temper and completely gave up the idea of ​​fighting with the Mountain Ghost King. The strength of this thing depends on the age. The older the age, the stronger it is. Of course, the one we met is an alternative. There are too many brothers, and the combat power is another matter. A large number of lonely ghosts "Hualala" came up, and they couldn't scare us to death. A ghost slapped us and was enough to slap us into meat patties. Brother Yaozi had to endure it when he met such a ruthless guy.

When a living person celebrates a birthday, they celebrate the ninth day but not the tenth day, because water overflows when it is full and the moon wanes when it is full. They are afraid that fullness will bring harm. They pray for longevity and longevity. The dead do not go to the netherworld to reincarnate. In a sense, things are meant to last forever, and celebrating birthdays is a complete joke.

To me, this mountain ghost king is also a weirdo. Regardless of whether it is a human being or not, it is not a good thing anyway. With his eyes closed, he made a few blind moves and caused us a lot of trouble. A ghost market has gathered here, and we are just dreaming to go there.

Because there are more ghosts, and the yin and evil spirits are heavier. It is obviously the territory of the living, but it is full of smoke and miasma, no different from the netherworld.

Such a place is a forbidden place for the living.

From the perspective of Feng Shui, if the Yin Sha is too heavy, it can condense into steam and form dew at night, which is called 沆瀣. Areas filled with 沆瀣 can block living people and even make living people hallucinate without knowing it.

Some mass graves and mass burials are places where 沆瀣 is easily formed.

Some people feel very uncomfortable and even confused at some mass grave memorial sites of the massacre. If they don't follow the crowd, they don't know where they are when they walk. This is all due to the influence of 沆瀣.

However, a corpse is a corpse after all. No matter how heavy the Yin Sha Qi is, can it compare to a bunch of lonely ghosts? It is normal for us to get lost.

At this time, night is approaching, and the collusion is getting heavier. We have been tricked without knowing it. The little sparrow said that Zhang Xinya seemed to be stepping on the accelerator hard, but in fact, there was mud under the car, and she had been digging in the air. She had been stuck here for a long time. But the people in our car thought they were driving at full speed, and their adrenaline was soaring...

"Can't we retreat three steps?"

Zhang Xinya was a little scared and said, "Stay away from here and wait until the ghost market is over before continuing?"

"I can't leave."

Brother Yaozi looked at the sky: "We have inhaled so much collusion and have been tricked. It is not suitable to continue to travel now. Moreover, once the ghost market starts, many ghosts will gather. I am afraid that there will be thick fog within a radius of ten miles, and my eyes will be almost blind. Even if something unexpected happens, I will have no power to resist."

"Is there really no way out?"

I was so nervous that I couldn't help interrupting and asking, "Do we really have to stay here?"

Right now, the mountains seem peaceful and safe, but soon, there will be hundreds of ghosts and monsters everywhere.

When there are more people, cowards become braver, and the same is true for ghosts. Even those cowards who dare not harm people on weekdays become braver. Yin and Yang are opposites, and we are almost targets here. Once we are discovered, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"What are you afraid of!"

Lao Bai glanced at me and said unhappily, "You become a paper man at night, and you are in the same group with those things. We should be worried about us, okay?"

This statement was not very popular, as if I was the kind of person who was developing quietly and watching my teammates being slaughtered in group battles. I glared at him unhappily. If he wasn't so powerful, I really wanted to hit him with his stinky mouth.

"There is only one way..."

Brother Yaozi was silent for a moment, and then said, "When night falls, the ghost market appears, and the fog fills an area of ​​ten miles. Only inside the ghost market, there is no fog, and the direction can be identified. Moreover, because the evil spirit there is the heaviest, the collusion formed will lie on the ground like dewdrops, and living people will not be affected when they walk into it..."

"Are you saying that we should cross the ghost market?"

I asked in a lost voice, and when Brother Yaozi nodded, my scalp exploded. This is definitely not a good idea. If we really run in, it will be like throwing meat buns at dogs, and there will be no return.

Everyone argued for a while, but they still couldn't come up with a plan.

"Get off the car and go up the mountain!"

Finally, Zhang Daoxuan spoke in an unquestionable tone: "Between heaven and earth, the yin energy is the heaviest, and most of it falls into the gullies. Going up the mountain can avoid it, at least it won't be blinded by the fog. Now that things have come to this, we can only survive tonight on the top of the mountain, and wait for the sunrise tomorrow, the fog will dissipate, and then we can set off!"

This is the real backbone among us. As soon as he spoke, everyone immediately stopped talking, jumped out of the car, picked up their luggage and walked towards a mountain next to them.

That mountain is already the highest peak in this vast expanse. When we climbed up, the sunset had only the last arc of light still lingering on the edge of the sky. The darkness has begun to lay out here. Looking from a high place, it can be seen that a thin mist has risen in the gullies around, but the mist is not absolutely white, it looks gray, and only the valley that blocks our way has no fog.

"That should be the place where the ghost market is held!"

Brother Yaozi pointed at the valley, patted my shoulder, and said with a smile: "Jingzhe, you are lucky. Most ghost markets are in poor mountains and bad waters. Many people in the Xuanmen will hardly see them once in their lifetime. You can see them, which is also an eye-opener."

What kind of luck is this? As long as the mind is still normal, I am afraid that no one likes to watch the creepy scene of a hundred ghosts at night.

I complained in my heart.

At this time, Zhang Daoxuan suddenly called me and Brother Yaozi over, and then asked me, Zhang Xinya, and Brother Yaozi to sit under an old tree on the top of the mountain, and put the luggage next to us, and then took out a small bottle and poured some black powder around us.

"Jingzhe, no matter what, don't walk out of this circle."

Zhang Daoxuan instructed: "Lao Bai and I will leave in a while."

When I heard that he was leaving, I panicked for no reason and was unprepared for it.

Not to mention me, even Lao Bai looked confused. It was obvious that Zhang Daoxuan had not discussed this with him.

"I just had some ideas, I need to verify them, maybe I can save your life!"

Zhang Daoxuan's eyes were deep, with a strange light flashing in them, but he didn't elaborate on his plan. Perhaps he saw that I was really nervous, so he comforted me: "We just happened to encounter the ghost market due to bad luck, and it's not that mountain ghost king who wants to target us. As long as we don't cause trouble, nothing should come to trouble us if we stay on the top of the mountain. The yin energy here is weak at night, and those things are too lazy to come up. With this circle I drew, plus the protection of your brother Yaozi, there should be no problem!"

After saying that, he seemed to have thought of something, and gave me a yellow paper talisman folded into a triangle, saying that when I turned into a paper man, if there was any unexpected situation and I had to leave this circle, I must hold the yellow paper talisman above my head and then step over it. Then he pulled Lao Bai away. Lao Bai was naturally reluctant, staring at the circle drawn by Zhang Daoxuan. Obviously, in his mind, it was more reliable to stay in the circle.

Things in the world will not change according to Lao Bai's thoughts. In the end, he followed my master and left. Things in the world will not change because of my thoughts. My master left after all. After what he said, I felt a little relieved, but only a little. I lost my backbone and the biggest supporter. I was nervous and could only pray that everything tonight would go as smoothly as my master expected...
