"A ghost?"

Yu Ze has never believed in these ghosts and gods, but in his opinion, it is more likely that someone pretends to be a ghost.

But the woodcutter's face became even more frightened after hearing this.

"It's true! I saw it just now! Eight bearers are carrying the red sedan chair, but they have no face! You must not go there!"

After that, he endured the fear again, recalled the things he had encountered before, and told Yu Ze and Chu Liuxiang all about the ghost bride's legend.

"Okay, old man, we're not going, just to hear what you said, this is Zhaoyue Mountain, right?"

"That's right, but it's a coincidence that the dead bride's name has the word moon in it. We are afraid of attracting ghosts, so we usually call her Zhenyue Mountain."

After finishing speaking, the woodcutter paused, and looked at the two suspiciously.

"You absolutely must not go in!"

"Don't go in, don't go in."

Yu Ze and Chu Liuxiang waved their hands repeatedly with the same smiling faces.

The woodcutter turned his head three times at every step, for fear of another tragedy.

After the woodcutter walked away, Yu Ze's complexion changed, he looked back at the place where the woodcutter rolled down, and then took out the invitation from his bosom, and looked down.

"Here it is. He asked us to wait here, saying that someone would pick us up at midnight."

Yu Ze paused, with a smile on his lips, and looked at Chu Liuxiang teasingly.

"Hey, you said we won't go in in the red sedan chair? If we want to sit in the red sedan chair, I don't know if we should wear wedding clothes?"

"That's very good, even our wedding is held together."

Chu Liuxiang said with a smile.

There was a brief silence between the two of them, Yu Ze blinked and looked at the dark forest beside him.

"Are we just going to wait?"

Chu Liuxiang: "The host's kindness is hard to turn down, so we have to take the initiative."

The two have never been the kind of people who would sit and wait to die.

They walked into the forest together without much thought, half because they didn't want the people behind the scenes to easily take the initiative, and the other half was pure curiosity.

Chu Liuxiang has always been a person who knows that curiosity killed the cat, but still can't help but obey his curiosity frequently. Although Yu Ze doesn't like to meddle in other people's business, but after staying with Chu Liuxiang for a long time, he has a tendency to move closer to him.

Zhaoyue Mountain is foggy, and because of the legend of ghosts, no one has dared to enter the mountain for many years. The tall trees are densely covered, almost blocking the sunlight from the sky. Once entering the dense forest, it is like going from day to night. .

Yu Ze and Chu Liuxiang climbed up the small slope following the trail of the woodcutter, and then walked deeper and deeper.

"I didn't expect to use a fire bag in broad daylight."

The fire in Yu Ze's hands lit up, and he said helplessly.

The woods are really too dark, and the sun doesn't shine all the year round, so it gets colder the further you go in, and it really feels like the wind is blowing.

The fallen leaves under their feet rustled, and Yu Ze and Chu Liuxiang were guarding their surroundings one by one.

After walking for a while, Chu Liuxiang paused, and suddenly squatted down.

"What did you find?"

Yu Ze squatted down, with his right hand resting on the handle of the knife, and with the other hand, he held the torch close to the ground.

"footprint."

Chu Liuxiang said lightly, and slightly lifted the fire bag after taking Yu Ze's hands, a row of footprints in front of them also appeared in front of them, spreading all the way into the invisible darkness.

"I've never heard of ghosts leaving footprints."

Yu Ze smiled.

"Now that I think about it, this ghost may not only have footprints, but maybe a shadow as well."

Chu Liuxiang smiled, got up and patted the dust off his body, and followed the traces of the footprints with Yu Ze.

"There are eight people in total. Judging from the footprints, it is estimated that they are not small in stature."

Yu Ze said, looking down, he saw a footprint in a puddle not far away.

Because of the fog, the soil in the mountains is always wet and easy to leave footprints, but the soil in the puddles is extremely muddy, and if the weight is enough, half a foot can sink in.

Yu Ze narrowed his eyes as he looked at the depth which was obviously different from other footprints.

"It seems that there is someone on the sedan chair."

He looked up at the secluded forest hidden in the darkness, his eyes eager to try.

"The owner of the Wuxi Pavilion invited more than just our pair of guests..."

……

Gu Xichao woke up halfway. Before Jiang Fu left, he thought her medicine was good, so he ordered a few bottles, but he didn't expect it to come in handy now.

Thinking of the medicine sachet that had been improved by him and kept between his teeth, Gu Xichao felt a rare sense of happiness in his heart.

Although the effect of the detoxification pill was limited, it could only make him conscious and his hands and feet were still sore, but it was better than nothing.

He licked his teeth and licked away all the remaining powder.

Eyes appear to be blindfolded.

There was a heavy weight on his body, and his muscles were tense under the thin clothes, with a little elasticity, and the warm breath swept his neck.

I also knew it was Qi Shaoshang.

Gu Xi turned her head to the side to avoid the swept hair, feeling surprisingly calm in her heart.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to say that under such strange and inexplicable circumstances, the existence of Qi Shaoshang did calm his heart a little.

It's like fighting a sea of ​​flames with someone, two people together, it's better than facing it alone.

The sound of fallen leaves being trampled gradually sounded in my ears, and my body swayed, as if I was in a sedan chair.

Gu Xichao's right shoulder was numb from being pressed by the person on him, and he moved uncomfortably.

This sedan chair is also too small.

He frowned slightly, and couldn't help thinking.

At this time, his right hand had already felt a little, he took out a pill from his waist, and tried his best to feed it into Qi Shaoshang's mouth.

Unexpectedly, the sedan chair under him swayed at this time, Gu Xichao couldn't hold it steady, and watched the medicine roll out of the sedan chair helplessly.

Gu Xichao's face turned dark, Jiang Fu only gave him three, and now he has used up one and lost another, if there is any emergency, it will not be enough.

But he changed his mind again, the person in front of him has brought him to such a situation, thinking about what he is doing, just take care of himself.

Thinking of it this way, my heart immediately became smoother.

So he didn't give the medicine anymore, and fumbled to pour it out of the bottle, threw the bottle away, and hid the medicine in his hair.

The sedan chair under him continued to sway, and Qi Shaoshang also swayed along with it, as if floating on the sea. Finally, he leaned forward and his chin hit Gu Xichao's shoulder.

Beside the cheek should be Qi Shaoshang's neck, Gu Xi tilted his head sideways, his teeth itching with hatred, and he really wanted to lean up and take a bite.

Just as he was thinking, a cloud of light suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

Someone opened the car curtain.

Gu Xichao was startled, and quickly lowered her body, pretending to be dazed, but her eyes were not closed, trying to see something from behind the light-penetrating cloth.

There was a slight light on his body, and then a strong hand pulled him out.

The outside of the sedan chair should be bright.

Gu Xichao was brought into a room, and he couldn't hear the noise in his ears. Gu Xichao tried his best to distinguish the blurred scene in front of him. Through the black cloth towel, he could vaguely see many people walking back and forth.

Either short or tall.

Or alone, or hug left and right.

Like a brothel, but also like a gambling house.

What exactly is this place?

Gu Xichao felt a softness under his body, and someone put him on the bed.

Then the door closed, and someone sat down beside him and reached out to touch his belt.

Gu Xichao tried his best to relax his muscles, trying not to let others see his flaws, but his heart hung high.

"There are several bottles of medicine here."

A female voice sounded, and the rest of the medicine in the sleeve was taken away, followed by the God Weeping Small Axe.

"Why are there so many bits and pieces on him?"

There was a clanging sound, it was a hidden weapon hidden by him.

After a long silence, a slightly mature female voice suddenly sounded.

"Since Mr. Gu is awake, why don't you open your eyes and take a good look at where this is?"

There was a thunder on the ground.

Gu Xichao didn't even move her eyebrows, but her heart was already hanging high, hanging by a thin thread, which was in danger of breaking at any moment.

For a moment, it seemed that even the air froze.

After an unknown amount of time, a younger female voice sounded, with a trace of reproach.

"Let me just say, our master's medicine is powerful, and no one has ever been able to unravel it. It happened to you. No matter who comes, you have to try it."

The woman didn't answer, she took a few steps forward and pinched Gu Xichao's waist so hard that her long nails almost sank into her flesh.

Gu Xichao didn't move.

"I'm really dizzy."

she murmured.

"Sister, let me tell you, why are you so suspicious?"

"Gu Xichao is a fox with nine lives, you can't be too careful."

The woman tidied up the things she found, and said: "Go and search for Qi Shaoshang later, and pour the medicine into him."

"Ah? Isn't the master going to kill him?"

"You can do it if you tell you to do it, so much nonsense."

"Oh……"

The door opened and closed, and the footsteps faded away.

Gu Xichao waited for a while, then let out a breath, and pulled off the cloth that was blindfolded.

An extremely luxurious room came into view.

The quilt made of Shu brocade, the huanghuali wardrobe is inlaid with mother-of-pearl, and not far away is a pot of narcissus bonsai made of jade, with white flowers and green leaves, lifelike.

……

Yu Ze and Chu Liuxiang followed the footprints all the way to the depths of the dense forest, but soon, the footprints were broken.

The trees here are lush, the branches and leaves are densely packed together, and there is not even a road.

If someone carries a sedan chair through here, there will be traces of broken branches, but there are no traces here, and the legendary sedan chair seems to disappear out of thin air.

"Ha, is it really a ghost?"

Yu Ze leaned down and groped around the footprints, and said casually.

"Anyway, they will come to pick us up when they are young. Whether it is a human or a ghost, we will know when the time comes."

This waited for most of the day, and the two of them were not idle during the period. They searched the forest for a while, but they didn't see any buildings.

What kind of place is Wuxi Pavilion?

Isn't it a building?

Or is it like the hidden place in Peach Blossom Spring?

Yu Ze narrowed his eyes, and the interest in his eyes grew stronger.

"Chu Liuxiang, I finally understand why you like to participate in those troublesome things so much."

With a flick of his toe, Yu Ze kicked a porcelain bottle.

"what?"

"what happened?"

Chu Liuxiang, who was groping on the stump to see if there was any mechanism, turned around quickly.

Yu Ze squatted on the ground, holding a porcelain bottle in one hand and a pill in the other, sniffing gently.

"This is... Jiang Fu's medicine!"

"This is the medicine Jiang Fu gave Gu Xichao!"

Yu Ze stood up with a "huh".

"Could it be... the bride who was carried in was Gu Xichao?"

Speaking of the word bride, Gu Xichao couldn't help but see Gu Xichao wearing a phoenix crown and Xiapei in Yu Ze's mind, and his face twisted for a moment.

He quickly shook his head to get rid of the untimely imagination.

The time has not yet come.

However, there was a sudden sound of dead leaves being trampled on.

Startled, Yu Ze immediately stroked the scimitar around his waist, and stood with Chu Liuxiang, looking vigilantly at the direction from which the voice came.

It was dark in the woods.

Click.

Click.

The sound of dead leaves breaking rang in my ears, getting heavier and clearer.

Suddenly, a dim light appeared in the dark woods.

Immediately afterwards, a figure pushed aside the branches and came out.

Dressed in white, with a smiley mask on his face, the lantern in his hand swayed with the wind.

"You two are waiting here so consciously, that really saves me a lot of effort."

With a smile in his voice, he pushed aside the weeds and bushes with the lantern in his hand, and made a "please" gesture.

"So, please come with me, both of you."
