"It's okay, you're busy first."

Swallowing with a grunt, Xu Zhigang, who hadn't completely walked outside the door, shrank back, and dragged Annie back.

Glancing at the woman's still-clear shadow under the moonlight, Jiang Ning, regardless of everyone's astonishment, had the courage to strike up a conversation with her: "It's so late, what are you up to?"

"Me?" Shaking the blood on the blade casually, the woman carefully put the porcelain bowl aside, "There will be a priest in the mountain tomorrow, I have to make some preparations in advance."

Taking out a roll of gauze from her pocket, the woman smiled at them embarrassedly: "Heigouxue, did you scare you? The timing of blood collection is very important, so I gave Xiao Hei some medicine in advance."

It turned out that the dog was not dead yet. Seeing Shufen lift up the front legs of the big black dog lying motionless on the ground to bandage it, Jiang Ning clearly heard Ning Qin behind him breathe a sigh of relief.

But taking blood at midnight, this sacrifice doesn't sound like a good thing. Looking at the pitch-black main house, the young man seemed to say unintentionally: "Where are Mr. Li and Brother Li? How can a woman do such a bloody thing?" Son?"

"Ah..." the voice was drawn out, the movement of the woman's hands paused, and then she said as if she came back to her senses, "Father and brother Hui went up the mountain ahead of time, and there will be sacrifices tomorrow morning, some things can't be sloppy."

With his left hand on his waist, Yan Sen, who was standing beside Jiang Ning, did not let down his vigilance just because the other party was a woman. Thinking of the identities assigned to them by the system, Yan Sen followed up and said: "Sounds very interesting, we can follow to see see?"

"Of course." The woman cut off the gauze neatly with a knife, and tied a bow on the big black dog's front legs. "Father specifically told me to take you up the mountain tomorrow morning."

Wiping the blade with a corner of the bow, the woman picked up the porcelain bowl and got up: "It's so late, why don't you go to bed?"

"It's the first time we came to the country to play, we were all so excited that we couldn't sleep," Jiang Ning said with his eyes open, and secretly elbowed Yan Sen, "Late night is suitable for chatting, don't you think, brother Yan?"

"Well," nodding cooperatively, the man said solemnly, "I really can't sleep."

——The female ghost picks up the bed or something, and no one can fall asleep.

"Sister, let's chat with us," Jiang Ning once again showed the business-like smile that he had practiced for a long time, and used his youthful appearance to act coquettishly, "If the story is not well picked, the teacher will definitely teach us again. "

"...Okay then." Facts have proved that Jiang Ning's smile is really killing men, women and children. After a little hesitation, the woman agreed to the young man's unreliable request.

"Don't go in the house," Jiang Ning's second suggestion was declined, the woman looked around nervously, "I am a woman, and I will always be gossiped in the middle of the night."

Not going into the house without turning on the lights, just sitting in a haunted yard chatting in the middle of the night, realizing the current situation, Ning Qin and the others, who have never played horror games, will inevitably feel a little absurd in their hearts.

But there are ghosts in the house, and Yan Sen and a "non-permanent gun" are still outside the house. After weighing the pros and cons, Ning Qin bit the bullet and followed behind Yan Sen and Jiang Ning.

"Come on, don't panic, don't panic," the middle-aged Xu Zhigang, who didn't see the female ghost, showed a kind of calmness that had gone through a storm. When Comrade Shufen returned to the house and let the black dog blood out, he clapped his hands comfortingly. Patting Annie on the shoulder, "I'm not afraid of ghosts, uncle, I can run fast."

Silently snorted, Annie let go of the other's left hand, but there was a faint hint of emotion in her eyes.

"What are you talking about?" Appearing like a ghost, the woman's brisk footsteps were almost inaudible. Putting down the bench and ponytail in her hands, she habitually brushed the broken hair by her ear, "Changsheng Village is located very far away. , how did you come to study it?"

"There's no way for the school assignment." Sitting on a small mat, Jiang Ning, who is most familiar with this type of game, had to take on the important task of cliche.

Looking back at the surrounding environment, the young man tentatively said, "I don't think there are many people in the village."

"The men are busy preparing for the sacrifice, and the only ones left in the family are the women and the children," the tone was gentle, and the women did not dislike Jiang Ning's talkativeness. "Women are timid and will not go out easily when they hear any noise."

"So that's how it is." Reluctantly accepting the other party's explanation that he didn't know the truth or falsehood, Jiang Ning nodded, and was not in a hurry to ask the other party about the sacrifice.

Regardless of Annie's hints that she kept flying towards him with her eyes, Jiang Ning, who thought of the small secret room before, tilted her head: "I don't think my sister is a local?"

——That old and dilapidated residential building does not look like a building in a village.

"My mother's family is in the city, but I met Brother Hui later, so I married here too," the accent problem was obvious, and the woman was not surprised by Jiang Ning's question, and subconsciously stroked her braid with her hand She smiled and sighed, "Life in the village is pretty good, but it's a pity for the few books I've read."

Good?Are you sure it's good to be crushed by a female ghost every now and then?

Resisting his desire to complain, Jiang Ning, who completely regarded the other party as a mission NPC, added drama to himself without blushing: "But I heard from the teacher that this place seems to be haunted."

"That's right," Fuzhi comprehended the meaning in the young man's eyes, and Xu Zhigang, who was sitting diagonally across from Jiang Ning, echoed, "I saw a white shadow just now when I got up at night, and I was so scared that I almost peed my pants."

"Maybe it's an animal that ran down the mountain." The smile remained unchanged, and the woman's answer was somewhat official. "The mountain is not peaceful these days, so the villagers are eager to sacrifice to the mountain god."

"Mountain God?" The key point appeared, and Jiang Ning repeated it with a doubtful tone.

"Changsheng Mountain God." Seeing that Ning Qin took out a pen and paper from nowhere and began to record, the woman also patiently slowed down her speech, "I don't know very well, but I heard that there is a mountain temple on the mountain. It is full of a kind of mountain pepper called Changsheng, because it matures early and has many fruits and is homonymous with 'Changsheng', so the villagers call the nameless mountain god 'Changsheng Mountain God'."

It turned out to be a chili god, and when it came to his old profession, Xu Zhigang straightened his back, and his eyes immediately brightened a lot.

"Perhaps this may seem ridiculous in your eyes, but they all rely on the land for food, and who doesn't want to live in peace of mind?"

Despite having such a rustic name as "Shufen", the woman was a girl from the city anyway. Seeing the disapproval in Annie's eyes, she couldn't help but sigh with emotion in a low voice.

If the female corpse I saw in the ceiling mezzanine is really the same person as the other person, then judging from the decoration style of that secret room in 201x, the time they are now is at least before the millennium.

Considering this hidden background, Jiang Ning accepted the custom of offering sacrifices to mountain gods quite well, but after seeing the female ghost who was beaten away by Yan Sen, he couldn't believe the woman's "animals go down the mountain". "The perfunctory rhetoric.

"There's really nothing strange here..." Just as he was about to ask, Jiang Ning noticed that the woman raised her hand and stroked her broken hair again. Because of the angle, he could clearly see a dark spot on the snow-white arm behind the slip of the other's cuff .

"Is sister injured?" The conversation changed, and the young man who was extremely keen on details caught the other party by surprise.

There was no answer, and the woman looked at Jiang Ning puzzled, as if she didn't understand why the other party asked such a question.

"Here," pointing to the woman's arm, Jiang Ning expressed concern, "My sister seems to have bumped into it somewhere."

"Ah, yes." Pulling off her sleeves quickly, the woman stood up from the bench, "It's late, I'll go back to the room to wipe some medicinal wine."

"It's windy at night, you all go to bed early, so you can go up the mountain on time tomorrow morning."

Watching the back of the woman leaving in a hurry, Yan Sen approached Jiang Ning's ear when the door was closed with a "bang": "That kind of bruise doesn't look like a bruise to me."

"And here," the man tapped the young man's cheek with his fingertips, and the man deliberately explained in a low voice with an enhanced version, "There seems to be a little bit of cyan here too."

As if a cluster of flames had been planted, the place on the young man's face that was touched by the man quickly blushed, not wanting to make himself appear too sensitive and "curvy", so Jiang Ning could only remain indifferent on the surface land.

If you fight for a little bit of anger, it's like being bitten by a mosquito. He Jiang Ning is the man who wants to win the championship!

"Are you talking about domestic violence?" Xu Zhigang didn't notice any tricks between Yan Sen and Jiang Ning at all, he changed his tone, pulled Annie with one hand and came forward with a bench in the other.

"Maybe." Yan Sen naturally distanced himself from the young man, turned around and looked around the village like a dead city, "It's just a coincidence that I bumped into my cheek. I always feel that there is something wrong with this village."

"I don't think there's anything wrong with this village." Shivering from the cold wind, Annie sneezed uncontrollably with her arms folded, but fortunately, her IQ was higher and she didn't try to increase the volume in the dark night.

The night was dark, except for a few players standing in the courtyard, the whole village fell into a deadly sleep. Looking at the Changsheng Mountain hidden in the darkness, Jiang Ning was startled, and suddenly pressed his button on it. flashlight.

"You are crazy!"

The snow-white light was too ostentatious, Annie whispered, strode forward and wrapped the front end of the flashlight with her palm.

"Sorry, I just wanted to see if I found anything." The flashback was still uncertain, and Jiang Ning, who had nothing to gain, immediately turned off the flashlight, and then apologized for his recklessness in a good-tempered manner.

"There's no need to be sorry." Glancing at Annie, Yan Sen explained to Jiang Ning calmly and impartially, "I've heard of your flashlight."

"cut."

Before Annie could say anything more, Ning Qin, who had been silent over there, suddenly raised her arm: "It's a torch."

Looking to the north, on the "back" of Changsheng Mountain like a beast in the night, the whole night is lit up by dots of fire.
