The villain was shocked: his mother used a ghost to coax the child

"Ouch!"

Sun Suquan screamed.

"Whoever it is, hit me."

She turned around and looked around, and saw Cui Lang holding a pile of stones in his hand.

Seeing her turn around, Cui Lang threw a series of stones at her.

No one stopped her, and some even wanted Cui Lang to hit her broken mouth.

Wen Qingliu did not stop her and walked beside her sister-in-law who was full of sadness.

"By the way, San'er, have you seen your eldest brother and fourth brother?"

Zhao Zhiquan shifted his gaze away from his wife and a look of joy appeared on his face.

"Mom, my brother is so powerful now that he can even have a say in front of our deputy general stationed there."

"but……"

Hearing her change of tone, everyone in the Zhao family held their breath.

"Isn't my fourth brother at home? He...isn't even twenty years old yet?"

Hearing that Zhao Zhiwen was doing well now, Wei felt relieved.

After hearing the second half of the sentence, everyone looked at the fourth brother's wife worriedly again.

What could Wen Qingliu do? She couldn't predict her husband's fate.

But to be honest, if she really can't come back, she will have to live with her three children.

After walking for a few more days, everyone rested under the trees almost every night.

If there are many trees, they can form a forest.

Everyone moved closer.

If not, everyone can only disperse.

"This hilltop...why do these trees seem so lifeless?"

"Oh my, in this weather, let alone plants, even people can't survive."

"Not to mention the flowers and trees that are rooted in the soil and can't move at all."

Zhao Mingde agreed when he heard it. If he wanted to get to the next county town, he just had to cross this mountain.

Just walk a little further and you'll be good to go.

Looking at the map in his hand, Zhao Mingde couldn't help but sigh. After walking for nearly half a month, he was finally reaching the next county town.

He led the whole village into this seemingly lifeless mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, there are weeds everywhere. Among the wild grass growing randomly, there is a stone tablet hidden.

There were only three blood-red words on the stone tablet.

A mountain of corpses.

It’s a pity that among so many people in Zhaojia Village, no one noticed this.

But even if you notice it, it's just a name.

Compared to going to a village you don’t know what it’s called or walking for another month to get back to the original town.

Perhaps they would rather believe that the mountain just has a scary name.

“It’s quite cool in this mountain.”

"Of course. After all, it's in the mountains. How can it be compared with the outside world?"

After walking for an afternoon, we were almost halfway up the mountain.

Going up the mountain is not easier than walking on a flat road, and it consumes much more physical energy than walking on a flat road.

"Let's rest here tonight. If you make a fire at night, be careful not to burn the mountain."

"Don't worry, Village Chief. Although we don't usually go up the mountain, we still have some common sense."

After hearing what the villagers said, Zhao Mingde naturally felt relieved.

At night, I don’t know if it was an illusion, but I always felt that the weather suddenly became unusually cool.

However, after so many days of traveling, this blessing was like a blessing from heaven to them.

It's absolutely beneficial to them.

But Wen Qingliu didn't think so. She always felt that after entering this unknown mountain.

Everything was starting to get weird.

This dry mountain is so different from the outside world.

So it's extremely dry outside now, and some leaves will break if you pinch them.

But in this mountain, the trees are dry, even... I walked a short distance this afternoon.

There are many dead trees blocking the way.

And there are gusts of cool breeze, which is really incomparable to normal weather.

But this coolness is not caused by yin energy.

She called Seventy-One out from the bracelet space.

Originally, Qishiyi had always been with Xiaoqi, and she always had talismans stuck on her body.

Not afraid of the burning sensation brought by the scorching sun at all.

Being with Xiaoqi is like having a portable air conditioner, which can make Xiaoqi feel more comfortable.

But once we entered the mountain, the weather was no longer hot.

If Qiyi follows, Xiaoqi will inevitably feel cold.

Seventy-one went back to the bracelet to play with her group of friends.

Wen Qingliu brought back a pair of twins a few days ago, but she has not yet established her authority as the big sister.

At that time, she had just become friends with the two little girls.

She put her hands on her hips and prepared to establish her status as the big sister.

He was picked up and carried away by a hand that appeared out of nowhere.

Seventy-one looked at Wen Qingliu with a sad look. Silence was the best deafening sound.

Wen Qingliu smiled for a moment, and soon his complexion returned to normal.

"Go take a good look at this mountain. I feel like something is wrong."

As a ghost, she couldn't feel the cold or the heat, but since Xiao Qi no longer needed her, it was obviously not that hot.

However, although she could not sense cold or heat, she could feel the breath of her own kind.

Although the mountain was cool, there was no yin energy at all except for her.

Seventy-one obediently floated away from Wen Qingliu and then floated forward.

In the second half of the night, Qishiyi came back and shook Wen Qingliu who had already fallen asleep.

Although Wen Qingliu was worried, he was not unable to sleep.

He was woken up by being disturbed at this time, and his eyes were exactly the same as those of Seventy-One in the afternoon.

"You better be in trouble."

"Sister Wen, I saw a child on the top of the mountain. He looked about seven or eight years old."

Wen Qingliu looked puzzled and asked, "Just him?"

"Yes, there was a child, a little girl, who smelled of blood and seemed to be injured."

Wen Qingliu's face looked even more confused.

"There's a seven or eight-year-old injured little girl on the top of a mountain in the middle of the night?"

It sounds so weird.

"Yes, under an osmanthus tree, Sister Wen, I think your intuition is really right."

"I also looked at the road down the mountain, and the trees were all dead."

"But the osmanthus tree is blooming extremely vigorously. There is another one next to it, which should be a locust tree, and it is also lush and green."

After hearing what Qishiyi said, Wen Qingliu's face darkened.

It would have been fine if the child under the osmanthus tree had been abandoned on the mountain.

I'm just afraid that the little girl might be Guinu.

As for the locust tree next to it... I just hope it doesn't give birth to a ghost girl or a ghost.

In Longyue Country, osmanthus has always had a very high status since ancient times.

Not only could noble ladies put osmanthus flowers into sachets and wear them with them.

It can also be made into osmanthus cake for consumption, and even made into osmanthus tea after drying.

Some families even use osmanthus flowers to steam rice, which makes the steamed rice rich in osmanthus fragrance.

However, let’s not talk about the fact that it is not the season for osmanthus to bloom.

It is abnormal that the other trees are dry while the osmanthus is flourishing.

When trees grow to a certain age, they will give birth to tree spirits.

This was originally just a legend, let’s take the osmanthus tree as an example.

Tree spirit, tree spirit.

Originally, there was no such thing as tree spirit. The so-called spirit actually referred to the age of the tree.

If a certain osmanthus tree has grown for thousands or even millions of years.

Then this osmanthus tree can be a thousand or ten thousand years old.
