how a stallion is made

After bidding farewell to the old lady at the post station, Tantai Shuhe rode his horse westward, and Pei Chao rode behind him, holding a book in his hand, studying climate change.

The mountain road was going against the road, and several business travelers who accompanied Tantai Shuhe were going to set up camp at the intersection of the main road that branched off.First tie the horses to the tree trunks on the side of the road one by one, and then clean up the field, lay blankets, and light a fire for cooking.

Tantai Shuohe walked up to the leader of the horse who led the way, and asked, "Are we going to go this way next?" He was referring to the road that went straight to the west.

Without even raising his eyes, the horseman replied, "We're going to detour over Dongling, but this is the only way."

Tantai Shuhe raised his head and saw that there was a small path facing east, and it was also a small path adjacent to the abyss, which was extremely thrilling.

"Why?" Tantai Shuhe couldn't help asking.

The horseman sneered, and said, "My lord, do you know what the name of this Xiling is?"

Tantai Shuhe thought for a while and replied: "Not returning to the mountain."

"Isn't this the end?" The Tou Maren paused, and then said, "If you go, you will never return to Lingling. You don't want to die, we villains still want it."

"But why can't it pass?" Tantai Shuohe asked persistently.

"I don't think there's any need to explain this to the young master, right?" The Tou Ma was probably really in a bad mood, and lost his temper when he caught someone, and he didn't know what happened.

Tantai Shuhe silently took out an ingot of silver and stuffed it into the hand of the Tou Maren without any muddling.

The horseman laughed twice, put away the money, patted the blanket next to him, and signaled Tantai Shuhe to sit down.Tantai Shuhe hesitated for a while, but finally sat down.

"By the way—this is Bugui Ridge. It turns out that ghosts go downhill. Anyone who passes by here must follow the old guide when going downhill. If there is no guide to lead the way, that person will definitely get lost! After walking out, he may even run to a hundred thousand Eight thousand miles away."

Tantai Shuhe took advantage of the time when the horseman stopped to drink, and asked: "Then why don't we find a guide? Could it be that something has changed?"

The Tou Ma gave a low drink, reeking of alcohol, before replying: "This is the problem, has Evil Master Wuling heard of it?"

Tantai Shuhe frowned, it's this guy again!

"There are rumors in the world that he is dead."

The horseman smiled secretly, and said in a low voice, "Then what if I say he's not dead?"

"Not dead?" Tantai Shuhe was a little surprised, to be able to feign death with most of the nine surnames in Xianzhong joining forces, what a skill it must be!

The Tou Ma continued to say mysteriously: "Someone once looked at this ridge at night from the hillside over there. Guess what? He saw that the ridge was very lively, with people coming and going, and the lights were brightly lit."

"Ah?" Tantai Shuhe always felt that there was a cloud of yin blowing from behind him, blowing all the way to the bottom of his heart.

"Think about it, it's so late at night, and it's the wilderness again. Where did the market come from? It's not a ghost, tsk tsk. And the one who controls all ghosts in this world—I'm afraid there is no one else but that one." ?” The Tou Maman smacked his lips, and when he brought up the wine gourd, he poured it down vigorously, with endless gurgles.

Tantai Shuhe was puzzled, that Xie Zun is not a human being, but how could he deceive everyone's eyes.What's more, the Sanqing Zhang family who has been staring at this area has not said anything, and the possibility of it being Weijing is almost zero.

"But—why can't we cross this ridge?"

The Tou Maman said impatiently: "Are you bored? In the past ten years, no one has been able to come back to this ridge if anyone goes up! There is no return!"

Tantai Shuhe hesitated to speak, but in the end he did not continue to ask.He got up and patted the hem of his clothes, and returned to Pei Chao's side. Pei Chao was cooking noodles, and he knew he was a novice at a glance.

"My lord, would you like some too?" Pei Chao asked out of politeness.

Tantai Shuhe looked at Pei Chao's move to throw a whole lump of salt into the pot with a half-smile.

"Really?"

Pei Chao was embarrassed for a moment, and said: "The gentleman stays away from the kitchen... I can't help it..."

Tantai Shuohe sighed, took the salt from his hand, and said, "I still need to save you."

After a long silence, Pei Chao suddenly asked, "Who did you learn your cooking skills from?"

Tantai Shuhe smiled and said: "It's hard to give up on a natural genius, and I can't help it. Some people are born so smart."

"..." Such a sad topic was misleading.

After a pot of steaming noodles was cooked, Tantai Shuohe put down the ladle and said to Pei Chao, "I'm going to go to the Mountain of No Return."

"Ah?" Pei Chao, who was about to pick up the chopsticks to eat the noodles, suddenly shook his hands and almost dropped the whole pot of noodles on the ground.

"I heard that the big devil more than ten years ago is not dead, I want to meet him." Tantai Shuhe's expression was very relaxed.

Pei Chao's mood is very complicated. Forget about cutting pig grass, feeding chickens and ducks, going up the mountain to chop firewood, and catching monsters by the way, he is finally serving the people.But who came out on official business, and even visited relatives and friends?Even if it is not to visit relatives and friends, is it okay to visit a stranger?

"Let's go." Tantai Shuhe acted swiftly and quickly, and before Pei Chao came back to his senses, he got on his horse and headed towards the Ridge of No Return.

Pei Chao thought for a while, gritted his teeth and followed with a pot of noodles.

At the beginning, there was nothing to do on the mountain, but it was dark all around, and those who were a little bit timid might be scared to pee.It's a pity that Tantai Mohe and Pei Chao are not included in this list. Pei Chao doesn't do bad things and is not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, but Tantai Mohe... dies sooner or later, it is better to die.

"Follow closely." Tantai Shuhe said abruptly.

"Hmm..." Pei Chao was hungry, and couldn't help swallowing while looking at the noodles in the pot.

Not long after, the willows were dark and the flowers were bright, and a building sign suddenly appeared in front of the two of them, with three big blood-red characters written on it:

Yin law coagulation.

Then, a bustling scene spread out in front of him, and the bustling street market was no different from ordinary people.

Pei Chao looked at Tantai Shuhe seriously, only to see that the other party went in without any preparation, without any hesitation.

Just as the two of them entered the street, the horses stirred uncomfortably for a while, and Tantai Shuhe had no choice but to suppress them.

The guy from the noodle stall closest to him greeted him with a smile, and asked Pei Chao, "My lord, would you like a bowl of steaming wontons? It's packed with delicious food!"

Tantai Shuhe smiled, pointed to the pimple on his hand, and replied for Pei Chao: "He brought it with him."

The boy was not annoyed, and continued to say cheerfully: "How can this be the same? Our craftsmanship is so fascinating!"

Tantai Shuohe suddenly drew his sword, and cut off the young man's head.

"Ah!" Pei Chao was taken aback by his fierce behavior, but the pot of gnocchi still stayed in his arms perfectly.

The head fell to the ground and turned into a paper slave, which was so gloomy and frightening.

"After eating your yin food, can I stay here with you?" Tantai Shuhe retracted his sword and looked at Pei Chao, "Give me the jade pendant."

With a flash of inspiration, Tantai Shuohe engraved a complex protective circle on it.

Tantai Shuhe raised his hand and threw it back, casually said: "No matter what, don't throw away this jade pendant, it can keep you safe. Also, no matter what it is, as long as it is from this place, don't eat it!"

"Master...something is strange——"

Tantai Shuhe directly interrupted his words: "Since passing by here, if there is really any evil person, then I will always meet them."

Pei Chao still swallowed the words that reached his throat, his own persuasion has never worked, so it's better not to say it.

When the "things" on the street saw Tantai Shuhe coming on horseback, they all shivered and found a place to hide, only showing a pair of strange eyes to silently look around.

At the end of the market is a big mansion. There is no traditional plaque on the gate of the mansion, but three characters—Ban Yin Yang!

Tantai Shuhe stepped on the threshold and kicked the door open.

A woman with twisted limbs crawled over from the door, her hair was not disheveled, and she was surprisingly tidy.

"My lord, calm down..." Qiu Shui's delicate and pitiful eyes just stared at Tantai Shuhe.

The corner of Tantai Shuhe's mouth twitched, a beauty trick would not work, let alone a dead beauty.

"Let your master come out to see me." Before Tantai Shuhe finished his sentence, he heard a wooden door creaking from behind the screen wall, matching this scene, it was indescribably weird and funny.

"Sir, please calm down. I will take you to see Mr. Xiezun." The boy with the cat face mask lowered his head, looking very respectful.

Tantai Shuhe raised the corners of his lips and said, "You are a living person."

The boy replied neither humble nor overbearing: "Yes."

"interesting."

"Please, son." After the young man pointed at Ping Ying, he obviously wasn't worried at all about whether Tantai Shuhe would cooperate with this matter.

Pei Chao dismounted and chased after him.

Tantai Shuhe really followed the boy.

After walking for a long time, walking out of the mansion and passing through the garden in the backyard, the scene gradually became desolate.

"I said, don't you just want to lure me out of there?" Tantai Shuhe asked abruptly.

The boy turned his head, smiled slightly, and said, "Exactly."

"Where is the promised Night Walk of Hundred Ghosts? Bad review!" Tantai Shuhe said indifferently, as if he didn't care about the boy's answer.

"They were all overwhelmed by the son's domineering spirit." The young man remained calm.

"If Wuling Xiezun himself is at this level, he should stop messing around and go to Huahua Street."

The boy started running suddenly, Tantai Shuohe resolutely chased after him.He can be sure that this young man is not the Evil Venerable, but it must have something to do with the Evil Venerable.

Pei Chao stumbled and struggled to keep up, but it was also difficult because he never spilled the noodle soup.

"I go--"

Tantai Shuhe seemed to have suffered some severe injuries, and his voice became erratic.

Pei Chao stopped suddenly, in front of him was a hidden cliff!

"Whizzing--"

Pei Chao was at a loss, Tantai Shuohe was... plotted against?But what should he do?

Therefore, Pei Chao, who decided to wait here for Tantai Shuohe's return, sat down and drank the noodle soup.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, eating noodles at night.

One more day...
