Strange Records of Mountain Ghosts

The cave that Zhang Xiaotong was looking for was overgrown with weeds and green vines crawled down from the small slope, stretching his body, and the leaves covered with fluff densely covered the entrance of the cave. Found that there is something wrong here.

A chick was poking outside, playing around, and Zhang Xiaotong caught it into the hole, surrounded it with a few big stones, and trapped it inside.The chick turned around inside, chirping non-stop.

"After tonight, people from the village will come to search the mountain early in the morning." Zhang Xiaotong pushed aside a corner of the branches and looked out. At the end of the mountain, at the boundary of the sky, the sun was emitting its last rays.Although this is a scene that he sees every day, but today, it seems that there is something special in his heart, making him feel like a dream.

Sitting in front of the kerosene lamp, Mu Shaohe sneered, "How dare they come to search the mountains? They don't know how to live or die..."

Zhang Xiaotong once again warned him not to kill and eat people.

"Why?" Mu Shaohe's evil nature is hard to get rid of.

Zhang Xiaotong turned around, walked up to Mu Shaohe and sat down. There was a small lamp between the two of them, and the light of the fire illuminated their faces indistinctly.

"Because you are not a mountain ghost, and you can't be a mountain ghost," Zhang Xiaotong looked at him directly, "You are Mu Shaohe, the number one Fengshui master in Jingnan."

Mu Shaohe read these two sentences in a low voice, Zhang Xiaotong saw his brows were frowned, his face was confused and tangled, but he forced himself to recall the details, held his hand distressedly, and said softly: "The short 1000 years ago 26 years ago For now, time has passed, after going through Sangtian, things have changed and people have changed, it doesn’t matter if you don’t remember.”

"I just hope you are safe and well, don't lose yourself. Other than that, I have nothing else to ask for." Seeing his round head, Zhang Xiaotong stretched out his hand to caress it, and his short hair made his palms itchy .

"Then what about you, who are you?" Mu Shaohe stopped thinking, seeing that Zhang Xiaotong was sweating on his forehead, and his hair stuck there a few pokes, and reached out to help him lift it up.

"You call me Brother Xiaotong." Zhang Xiaotong touched his bare forehead, feeling his cold fingertips there.

"I've been calling you Brother Tong, so you have to stay with me all the time." Mu Shaohe jumped over the kerosene lamp and laid on him like a cartilage shrimp.

Zhang Xiaotong didn't answer, but just put his arms around Mu Shaohe to prevent him from slipping down.

But Mu Shaohe didn't give up and asked him to make a promise. Zhang Xiaotong, who was overwhelmed by the disturbance, stretched out three fingers to promise: "Brother Xiaotong will always be with you."

Satisfied, Mu Shaohe hugged him tightly, but didn't let go.

Zhang Xiaotong didn't push him away, but hooked his nose with a smile.

Zhang Xiaotong will accompany you until the last moment of your life.

The sun had completely set, and the darkness eroded the inside of the cave. The outside breeze came in from nowhere, and the flickering, bouncing light of the kerosene lamp failed to wrap the two half-grown children.Just relying on it is enough.

Early the next morning, the sky was gray and there were occasional birdsong in the mountains. Zhang Xiaotong said he wanted to go back to the village, but Mu Shao was not happy, so he went with him with a gloomy face.The two hid behind a large pile of firewood, and saw dozens of villagers gathered at the entrance of the village and marched up the mountain.

Mu Shaohe didn't like human beings except Zhang Xiaotong, and scraped the firewood with his sharp nails: "Why do these people dare to look for me?"

Seeing that there was no such person in the crowd, Zhang Xiaotong took Mu Shaohe's hand and left the pile of firewood, explaining: "Because they don't get rid of you, they are worried that you will continue to return to the village after eating me, arresting people and eating livestock."

Mu Shaohe was afraid that Zhang Xiaotong would be angry, so he hurriedly said that he only ate two families at the end of the village, and later those were none of his business.

"I know it wasn't you who did it."

Zhang Xiaotong and Mu Shaohe stopped in the backyard of a family.The poultry nests in the yard were on the ground, their heads drooping, and they were particularly lethargic. The weeds around them were trampled to the ground, and there was a faint stench in the air.Zhang Xiaotong stepped forward and knocked on the door.The door opened, and Zhou Dongcao's eyes were tired. When he saw the person coming, he was stunned. Before he could react, he was pushed into the room by Mu Shaohe behind Zhang Xiaotong. Zhang Xiaotong followed closely and closed the door.

With Mu Shaohe present, Zhou Dongcao didn't dare to move indiscriminately, but looked Zhang Xiaotong up and down in surprise.

Zhang Xiaotong let him scrutinize him. With Mu Shaohe by his side, he paced into several rooms. When he didn't see the person he was looking for, he said, "The poultry of fifteen households in the village were bitten into pieces the day before yesterday. Widow Yang I accidentally said, why did that person want to find someone in the middle of the village?" Zhang Xiaotong didn't give up, and continued to look around the house, "I think it's because that person is in the village."

Zhou Dongcao didn't speak, and when Mu Shaohe wasn't paying attention to him, he took out a handful of ash from his arms and threw it in front of Mu Shaohe, and at the same time turned and fled. Before he could touch the door, he was thrown by a force behind him He fell to the ground, groaning in pain.

Zhou Dongcao turned her head and saw Mu Shaohe who was smiling evilly, and couldn't believe it.

"Yesterday you were able to catch him purely because he was mentally ill and fell ill." Zhang Xiaotong found an unusual place on the ground and squatted down.

Mu Shaohe was aggrieved: "Why did Brother Tong say that about me?"

"It's okay, I like whatever you do," Zhang Xiaotong reassured, and seeing that Mu Shaohe was happy, he turned his head and continued, "The last person that person arrived at was the village chief's house. You can guess in order, the house of Widow Yang near the village head." It was his first target, why did he pick Widow Yang, maybe he came from somewhere in front of Widow Yang, for example, a certain family's house."

As Zhang Xiaotong said, he found a small ring on the floor, grabbed it, and the loess covering it shook off, a piece of wood was pulled out, and at the same time, a dark hole appeared.

Zhang Xiaotong squatted by the entrance of the cave, poked his head down, only felt the stench and the cold wind rushing towards him, very evil.

Seeing this, Zhou Dongcao rushed forward to stop Zhang Xiaotong from going down, but was kicked down into the hole by Mu Shaohe, who had disliked him for a long time. Mu Shaohe hugged and jumped down.

The hole is not deep, and after landing a few steps forward, there is a simple space surrounded by dirt. In the small hole, you can see the locked person at a glance.

He was covered in dicks, his body was bulging, and his whole body was doubled in size. One after another, lumps of flesh were squeezed on his skin, writhing constantly. It seemed that there was a living thing inside, and a thin, red thing could be faintly squeezed inside. Touch it.And the man knelt on the ground, kept hitting the wall, and rubbed left and right at the same time, as if he wanted to scrape off the things on his body, and there was a ho-ho gasp in his throat, painful and crazy.

Zhang Xiaotong approached, and Mu Shaohe followed closely.Hearing the sound of footsteps, the man raised his head tremblingly. A pair of protruding eyes were exposed from the messy hair. The whites of the eyes occupied almost the entire eyes. If you looked closely, you could see red bugs the size of wires swimming in them.

This is Zhou Dongcao's son Xia Zhi.

Zhou Dongcao got up from the ground and moved slowly, as if he had aged ten years, saying that he was insane and could no longer recognize anyone.

Four days ago, Zhou Xiazhi, who went hunting, returned home alone with injuries all over her body, and told Zhou Dongcao in horror that everyone else was gone.

Zhou Dongcao was astonished and couldn't believe it: "Who did you say is gone?"

Zhou Xiazhi cried until his face was covered with tears and snot. He didn't know whether it was sadness or fear, and he stammered that everyone in the team was gone.

Zhou Dongcao didn't have time to ask in detail, and hurried to inform other people, but Zhou Xiazhi suddenly went crazy and bit the meat on his body, shouting that they were in his body!With cracked eye sockets, he looks like a ghost. He keeps gnawing on his own flesh, and then spits out the flesh and continues to bite. Zhou Dongcao can only tie his mouth with cloth strips to prevent him from biting off his own flesh.

Zhou Dongcao dared not tell the villagers.

"I told them that Xia Zhi can only lead to death, and everyone will deal with him as an evil thing." Zhou Dongcao regarded Zhang Xiaotong and the others as someone to confide in, and was very haggard.

On the night he came back, Xia Zhi developed a high fever, and pimples began to grow all over his body, and the pimples gradually became bigger and became lumps of meat.Even if it is cut off with a knife, a bulging mass of flesh will grow again, and that mass of flesh will also grow black spots, which are particularly oozing.

"The old man once said that using the ashes of the dead can fight poison with poison and exorcise evil spirits. I went to Jishanya and dug up many bones, ground them into powder and fed them to him. As a result, he went crazy. I didn't pay attention the night before, and he ran outside , biting the chickens and ducks of more than a dozen families, causing a disturbance all over the city.”

Zhang Xiaotong looked at Zhou Xiazhi, who was not a human being, and pondered: "This is not an evil upper body, but a parasite."

Zhou Dongcao was stunned: "Parasite?"

Zhang Xiaotong didn't explain, but asked Zhou Dongcao to boil a large pot of hot water.

Zhou Dongcao didn't move.

Zhang Xiaotong's face was calm, and he didn't rush, just stood aside and watched Zhou Xiazhi's miserable appearance quietly.

Zhou Xiazhi's pain was in his ears, and Zhou Dongcao closed and opened his eyes again, acting like a living horse doctor, listening to a child, and went up to boil hot water.

Mu Shaohe asked: "Don't you need to follow him?"

Zhang Xiaotong shook his head: "He dare not ask someone to come." Mu Shaohe asked Mu Shaohe to open Zhou Xiazhi's mouth, took out a small knife from his pocket, and slashed his wrist without hesitation.

Mu Shaohe's eyes were stung by the bright red overflowing from his hand, he held him down, his face was full of fear: "What are you doing?"

Zhang Xiaotong struggled, why did Mu Shao not let go, and lowered his head to lick, Zhang Xiaotong hurriedly shouted: "Don't waste my blood! I have to use it to drive away evil spirits!"

Mu Shaohe's face was very ugly, he raised his head, but he still held onto his hand.

Zhang Xiaotong said: "If you don't let go, the blood will stop flowing, and you will have to cut again later."

Mu Shaohe reluctantly let go, Zhang Xiaotong pouted at Zhou Xiazhi, Mu Shaohe stepped forward with a straight face, and took off the man's chin, Zhou Xiazhi could only open his mouth and breathe out.Zhang Xiaotong put his wrist above his mouth, and the blood flowed down his thin wrist.

"What are you doing?" Mu Shaohe asked.

Zhang Xiaotong watched Zhou Xiazhi swallow the blood carefully, moved his hand away, and pressed his hand to stop the bleeding: "This is the evil blood thread bred by the Wenwang Temple, which parasitizes the body and absorbs nutrients on people. In a few days, these things will come out of the flesh on his body, the mother dies suddenly, and the evil spirits that reproduce in large numbers continue to infect other people. Although the blood threads are very similar to parasites, they are not living things, they are actually composed of several Formed from the resentment and evil after tens of thousands of Gu worms were killed."

Mu Shaohe saw that he was proficient in bloodletting and hemostasis, as if he had done this kind of thing thousands of times.

The restless lump on Zhou Xiazhi's body suddenly became quiet.Zhang Xiaotong leaned over to check, and said that the evil spirit had been eliminated.

"Let Zhou Dongcao soak him in hot water later, and the sarcoma will fall off automatically." Zhang Xiaotong is familiar with the way, like a doctor who has been practicing medicine for a long time.

Mu Shaohe was confused: "Who are you?"

Zhang Xiaotong smiled at him: "Now I am called Zhang Xiaotong."
