Qingyun went outside the door to catch the cat. It was pitch dark, with only a few dim moonlight illuminating it, which was a bit penetrating.

I don’t know if Chunhua will be scared when she goes to the kitchen alone. Qingyun regrets letting Chunhua go alone. Although Chunhua is older than her, she should be scared in such a dark night.

Qingyun looked at the dark night and thought wildly. The night in the mountains was very noisy, and the chirping of summer cicadas and insects was very loud, which would not increase the fear in people's hearts.

Qingyun opened the door and let the candlelight in the room shine outside. She was afraid that the returning spring flowers would be scared, so she walked to the table and poured a glass of water.

The cold water refreshed her mind. Qingyun trembled and glanced out the window. At this glance, Qingyun was stunned.

The window next to the table corresponds to the back mountain. There is a fence surrounding the room so that people will not run to the back mountain. Moreover, the back mountain is densely covered with trees and it is easy to get in but difficult to get out. This is a truth that everyone knows.

This window was always open, so no one would think of looking into the mountain behind, but by chance, Qingyun saw it.

In the jungle in the back mountain, there was light. It was not a red candlelight, but a white and blue-green firelight. It was about a hundred or two hundred meters away from Qingyun. It was extremely obvious in the dark night.

Qingyun put down the cup in her hand, her heartbeat began to speed up, and her palms began to sweat. She knew exactly what it was. She hoped that she had seen it wrong, but she turned her head and took another look. The fire was still there, rocking the chair in the air, so small and So obvious.

Qingyun can no longer lie to herself, it is a will-o'-the-wisp and a phosphorus fire.

Now there were only two possibilities, either a dead animal or a human. Qing Yunxi's heart sank.

"Xia Chan", Qingyun's voice was deep.

Xia Chan also heard that something was wrong with Qingyun, and appeared instantly, saying: "Miss."

"Follow me", Qingyun decided to go and have a look.

She couldn't tell others yet. If it was just the carrion of an animal, it would be a bit of a fuss. Moreover, it was already very late and everyone had gone to bed. It would be bad to wake people up again.

It is normal to have dead animals in the forest. Qingyun warned that she did not dare to think in the other direction. It would be dangerous to go by herself, so she called Xia Chan.

Xia Chan didn't ask what she wanted to do. She only knew that what Qingyun said was right. The two of them climbed through the window and walked into the forest on the back mountain.

The further inside it became, the quieter it became, and even the sound of insects disappeared. Qingyun stared at the flame. Now that there was no wind, it was floating in the air, shaking occasionally, but it didn't move far away.

The closer Qingyun walked, the more scared she became. With this atmosphere and environment, it was difficult not to be scared.

Xia Chan also saw the flame, but she didn't know what it was, and of course she wouldn't ask.

Although the distance was only one or two hundred meters, Qingyun walked with such difficulty.

When she was still more than ten meters away from the phosphorus fire, Qingyun stopped, hid behind a tree, and observed carefully. After a quarter of an hour, she found that the phosphorus fire had not moved, indicating that there was no living thing nearby.

Qingyun swallowed her saliva and continued to approach the phosphorus fire. It was not until the phosphorus fire started to move with Qingyun that Qingyun stopped.

She took the fire stick in Xia Chan's hand and shined it on the ground. In just a moment, Qingyun saw a person lying on the ground with a bloody hole on his head, which should be a fatal injury.

Qingyun was so frightened that she covered her mouth and did not dare to make a sound, but her reason drove her forward, and the phosphorus fire followed her.

Qingyun and Xia Chan turned the person over together. It was a young monk with a pale face. His head must have hit the stone next to him. He died of excessive bleeding. There were traces of simple bandaging on his legs and his body was dirty. Pretty.

Qingyun untied the bandage on his leg. The wounds were two bloody holes, not far apart. They should have been bitten by snakes. This man died very soon, maybe even tonight, and there was still residual warmth in his body.

It was visually estimated that the lost young monk was frightened by the phosphorus fire, tripped and fell while escaping, and hit his head on a stone and died. Qingyun roughly sorted out the process based on the situation at the scene.

But the problem of phosphorus fire was still not solved. Qingyun frowned as she looked at the phosphorus fire that moved with her movements.

The phosphorus fire was brought by this monk, so its origin should not be too far away. Qingyun clenched her fists. Now she was not so afraid.

Qingyun glanced at Xia Chan and said: "Don't worry about him, let's continue walking over there." Qingyun pointed to the road where the young monk ran, where there were trampled shrubs.

Xia Chan nodded, now she also felt the seriousness of the problem.

The two of them followed the little monk's route and walked deeper. The farther they went, the darker it became, and the moonlight could not penetrate the dense woods.

Qingyun took a deep breath and clasped her fingers with Xia Chan. Although Xia Chan was a secret guard, she had grown up with Qingyun since childhood and had never experienced any dangerous things. Although she was calm on the surface, she was no better than Qingyun on the inside. How many.

The two of them walked deeper into the jungle bit by bit. They walked for about a stick of incense. Qingyun couldn't remember clearly, so it felt like she had walked for a long time.

Qingyun saw a cave. The cave was very dark, like the bloody mouth of a monster. Qingyun and Xia Chan looked at each other and calmed down. There was no room for retreat now.

The two walked into the cave. There were traces of someone living about ten meters away from the cave entrance. There was a fire and some weed medicine. This was probably the monk's foothold.

After just observing for a moment, Qingyun continued walking inside without staying too long.

The deeper you go inside, the darker it gets. Huozhezi's light can barely stand up to the darkness, and just when they are all about to be swallowed up by the darkness

Qingyun saw the phosphorus fire again, not a little, not just one or two clusters, but a lot.

Qingyun was frightened and held Xia Chan tightly to prevent herself from fainting. For a moment, Qingyun felt like she was going to faint.

Taking a deep breath, Qingyun said: "Let's go", her voice was very strong, but very soft.

This could no longer be the body of an animal. Animals in the wild would not die so many at once, and the corpses would not be in caves.

Now that she has seen it, she must see it to the end. Qingyun gritted her teeth and continued walking forward with heavy steps.

Only ten meters away from the phosphorus fire, Qingyun stopped and observed the surrounding environment.

A beam of moonlight shines down from the top of the head, illuminating the surroundings a little. The phosphorus fire is around these moonlights, and the windless environment makes them very quiet.

She held the fire folder and looked forward. She couldn't see clearly. Qingyun took a few steps forward, but still found nothing. If it weren't for the phosphorus fire floating in the air, she would definitely not be able to see anything, not even the smell of corpses. You have to be close to smell it.

There were many corpses buried in these seemingly flat underground areas. Qingyun stopped checking and looked around, trying to find a clear reference.

Before Qingyun could choose a reference object, she heard footsteps. Just as Qingyun was about to hide, someone covered her mouth and held her in her arms.

Qingyun was frightened, and she bit the hand that was covering her fiercely. She only heard a muffled groan from behind, but she didn't let go. Qingyun bit harder.

It wasn't until the man brought Qingyun to a raised stone wall to make sure no one would discover them that he said, "Let go, my hand is going to be useless."

Qingyun felt that the voice was very familiar, so she opened her mouth and turned around to see Yan Siyuan with a painful expression on his face. Qingyun sipped the smell of blood in her mouth and lowered her head with a guilty conscience.
