Children in the mountains climbed over mountains and ridges when they were young, chasing rabbits and foxes. In order to avoid disturbing their prey, their actions are usually extremely agile and silent.

Lan Zui and Jun Yihuang didn't waste much time, they walked along the road between the buildings, barely catching up with Mengzheng before she was about to step out of the gate of Bai's Temple.

Mengzheng didn't go out for a walk just because she couldn't sleep as Jun Yihuang said before. On the contrary, she hurried through the main hall of Bai's holy temple, and went straight to the steps down the mountain.

The night was starless, moonless, and the light was dim. The stone road, which was so noisy during the day, suddenly became eerie and eerie under the cover of the trees on both sides.

Mengzheng was not overwhelmed by such an atmosphere, she pushed open the last iron gate and closed it quietly, striding like flying on the uneven stone steps, raising her wrist or looking at the sky from time to time, as if she was in a hurry.

At the end of the stone steps is a vast and barren flat land.In order to make it easier for the 'guests' to visit, the Bai family cleared everything at the foot of the mountain and opened it up as a parking lot.

In the same noisy parking lot at night, there are only a few cars belonging to the Bai family and some garbage that has not been cleaned up.Mengzheng stood in the middle of the parking lot, his vague shadow was dragged by a street lamp, making him look more and more eerie and lonely.

Lan Zui and Jun Yihuang were afraid of being found out, so they didn't dare to go any further.The two hid under the tree next to the stone steps, watched Mengzheng turn around in a circle, and made sure that there was no one around.

The person hiding in the dark was suddenly dumbfounded.Lan Zui climbed mountains, forded waters, and dug pits, but Meng Zheng didn't pay much attention to his footsteps.But Jun Yihuang at this moment is no more erratic and light than when she was a spirit body before, dragging a dead body that is not her own is extremely heavy, and when she was a human being in the past, she was a pampered nobleman who only valued dignified manners. Running around?When going down the steps just now, because the height of the steps was uncertain, Meng Zheng didn't let go of his speed completely, but Jun Yihuang could still barely keep up.Now that Mengzheng ran wildly in the flat ground, even though Jun Yihuang was not tired, she could only look at Mengzheng's back and sigh.

"Yihuang, I'll go and see, you're waiting for me here." Lan Zui saw Mengzheng's shadow go away quickly and gradually merged into the whirling night in the distance. go.

"Lan Zui." As soon as Lan Zui took a step, Jun Yihuang grabbed her again.After hesitating for a moment, Jun Yihuang let go again, and said softly: "Leave a mark for me, and I will go there as soon as possible. Remember my words, no matter who she is going to do, you should wait on the sidelines and don't intervene rashly. It's all about keeping yourself safe. "

Now that things are up, it doesn't take much thinking to know that Mengzheng is different.Lan Zui's heart warmed up when he heard the words, and he patted Jun Yihuang's hand to signal that he understood, turned around and kicked with his feet, and immediately rushed far away.

Lan Zui originally thought that she could catch up with Meng Zheng quickly, but unexpectedly, she underestimated her and overestimated herself, and even after running for a while, she didn't find Meng Zheng.Luckily, Lan Zui reacted quickly, and as soon as he turned his head, he immediately burrowed into the sparse wild forest beside the road. As expected, after searching for a long time, he found a dead branch that had been trampled off recently and a few footprints stuck in the wet mud. Although Mengzheng didn't find anyone following him, he was still cautious, abandoning the road next to him and fleeing into the wild woods to find another trail.

The two of them, one behind the other, shuttled through the wild woods in the cool breeze in the middle of the night.The road Mengzheng walked was not straight, she went left and right, and her speed was still extremely fast.Lan Zui followed behind, looking for the trace left by Meng Zheng with the help of the slight light in the forest.At this time, the two were like a cunning prey meeting a fierce hunter, one trying to escape, and the other trying to hunt down.

It was only at this time that Lan Zui deeply realized that Meng Zheng had changed.She is no longer the tame and lovely family dog, but transformed into a cunning fox that grows in the deep mountains.

Her and Jun Yihuang's speculation was confirmed.

There is no end to this forest.Through the sprouting branches, Lan Zui can see the sparse lights standing in the distance, the vague silhouette of the house, and the long hair of the ponytail of Mengzheng swaying slowly.

Adjacent to the woods is a small village called Baijia Village.Baijia Village was originally a mini-village with only a few scattered households. Later, relying on the popularity of Bai's Holy Temple, it quickly developed into a commercial area integrating accommodation and catering.Even in the middle of the night, there are still many houses in Baijia Village with lights shining through.It seems that this is not the first time Mengzheng has come to Baijia Village. She walked along the path and bypassed the houses that still heard voices. It didn't take long to arrive at the second half of Baijia Village, where the villagers themselves lived.

The living area of ​​the villagers is very different from the commercial area in the first half. At this time, it is almost plunged into darkness, except for a dim light bulb hanging in one courtyard.This time Mengzheng didn't avoid the bright light anymore, and walked directly towards the lit courtyard.

Lan Zui frowned at the back, she followed Meng Zheng all the way here, but still couldn't figure out what Meng Zheng was going to do.Now that Meng Zheng has determined his purpose, Lan Zui rolled his eyes and quickly walked around a house not far away, before Meng Zheng came to the side wall of the lit small courtyard.

Looking up at the height of the earthen wall, Lan Zui took a few steps back, squatted down on her tiptoes, and jumped up half of the earthen wall in one fell swoop.Like a big gecko, Lan Zui quickly swam up with the help of a little friction on the earth wall, climbed to the top of the earth wall in three or two moves, turned over again, and landed lightly on the roof tile next to the earth wall .

After Lan Zui hid his figure on the roof, he had time to look at this small courtyard with light bulbs.I didn't look at it, but I didn't pay attention to it. After Lanzui took a closer look, I realized that what was hanging in the middle of the yard was not a light bulb, but a kerosene lamp.The kerosene lamp was hung between two ropes and swayed slightly. Under the shadow of the swaying lamp was an unclosed coffin.From Lan Zui's angle, he couldn't see the panorama of the coffin, he could only see the black head of the person in the coffin. The deceased seemed to be a very young man.

At this time, Mengzheng came to the small gate of the courtyard, gently pushed open the creaking wooden door and walked in quietly.She seemed certain that there was no one else in this village house except the dead man lying in the courtyard, so instead of checking the three darkened houses, she went straight to the end of the coffin and took out a small lamp from her bosom. Lighted it with a lighter and placed it under the coffin.

After finishing all this, Mengzheng seemed relieved, found a small wooden bench from the yard, found a corner where the kerosene lamp could not shine, and sat down, resting her chin on the coffin in the yard in a daze.

Running all the way just to come here to light a lamp?

Looking at Meng Zheng's actions, Lan Zui was filled with question marks.Could it be that this dead man was an old acquaintance with Mengzheng, and Mengzheng came to worship him?But in this situation, it doesn't look like coming to worship an old friend, let alone when to come to worship?Bai Suhe hasn't treated people so harshly yet, she actually made Mengzheng sneak here in the middle of the night like a thief.

Lan Zui had guessed all kinds of things, and couldn't figure out what Meng Zheng was going to do, and couldn't help feeling a little resentful in his chest.One must know that Mengzheng came here to stare at a dead man in a daze, and she wouldn't follow her no matter what.One must know that she was tired all day, and suddenly woke up in a deep sleep. Now she has a sore back, backache, and leg cramps. What happened?Nothing!

When Lan Zui was thinking wildly, and even thinking deeply about whether to leave, suddenly a gust of cold wind blew, which made Lan Zui who was lying on the roof shiver, and shivered involuntarily.

It's going to change?Why is it so cold all of a sudden.

Lan Zui carefully moved his fingers to his mouth to breathe warmly, and looked around suspiciously.This will be spring after all, and the temperature will not suddenly drop to this point in the middle of the night.The shaking of the kerosene lamp hanging directly above the coffin also became very violent due to the wind, causing the various shadows on the ground to change rapidly like a kaleidoscope, which made Lan Zui dizzy.

The broom standing next to a wooden shelf next to the coffin was not stable, and was blown to the ground by the wind, making a rapid and short sound of 'snap' in the silent night.

Lan Zui felt uneasy for no reason, pursed her lips and stared at every movement below.The gust of wind became more and more violent, and there was no intention of slowing down. Because of the violent shaking of the kerosene lamp, the wick turned into a weak spot of light, and the courtyard became dark, causing the long burning lamp at the foot of the coffin and the small lamp lit by the kite under the coffin to burn. The brightness of the lights suddenly became very dazzling.

Only the flames burning on the wicks of these two lamps did not move in the wind that could blow down a broom.

Not at all.

Lan Zui could hear his heart beating, thump, thump, beating regularly.Her eyes moved from the two lamps to the unsealed position of the coffin, and among the beating of her heart she heard some other sounds coming from that place.

It was like the sound of hands beating on wood.

A pale hand stretched out from the coffin at an extremely slow speed, because most of the coffin was covered with only a small gap from the head to the shoulder, and that hand could only stretch out half of the palm and five fingers.His fingers grasped feebly above the coffin, as if calling for help, but also as if he was about to pinch something.The half of the palm, which was blue-gray and even slightly swollen, waved up and down, occasionally bumping into the coffin lid and the edge of the coffin, making a soft 'bump' sound.

Witnessing this scene, even though Lan Zui was bold, cold sweat broke out from behind.

The corpse has changed!

But she has been here all the time, knowing that no creature is close to the corpse, how could the corpse change suddenly? !

Mengzheng, who was sitting in the corner, stood up from the wooden bench at this time, she turned a blind eye to the transformation of the corpse in the coffin, stood in front of the waving hand for a moment, and even held it with one hand, The other protruded into the coffin and pressed on top of the corpse's head.

"Come back quickly, come back quickly." Mengzheng murmured in a low voice, the surroundings were really quiet, Lan Zui heard it very clearly: "Tell me, where are you from?"
