Where are the monsters?

After walking for six or seven hours, Mu Feng took Ying Ni to the former site of the cottage on the mountainside. It was indeed in a dilapidated state as Huzi said. It was also demolished.It is said that when the old and the old were broken, this place was also severely smashed. There were spider webs everywhere, and the ground was covered with ashes and rubble. There was not even a place to rest.

Mu Feng walked back to the room he used to live in. The windows on the wall had long since fallen apart, the furniture in the room had been emptied long ago, and maybe the beds where he used to sleep were burned as wood.

"What's that?" Ying Ni saw a bunch of white paper flowers on the beams, not just when they were hung up, but he thought it was just a bunch of waste paper, some things used in funerals.It's not that he is overwhelmed, but that the white paper flower looks a little abnormal in this dusty place.

Xiao Huang rushed to the beam and rolled the string of paper flowers with his tail. After taking a closer look, he found that the two ends of the string of paper-cuts were actually two patterns similar to paper figurines, which was really weird.

It's just that after this thing was taken down by Xiao Huang, nothing else changed.

In order to prevent any changes, Mu Feng took out a match and burned it. The paper flower seemed to be just like ordinary paper, and there was no special smell emitted during the burning process.

Mu Feng walked around the cottage, and here Ying Ni didn't feel that there was anything resonating like the fluctuations on the walls of Qin Ni's house. The two decided to combine the direction of the treasure cave that Xiao Huang had sensed. Find out the secret caves in the mountains that Mu Feng knew about one by one.

"You guys have sharp eyes, let me waste a paper figurine." Zheng Chun, who was at the foot of the mountain, was about to go up the mountain to track down the wooden seal, but he walked leisurely with confidence.

I saw Zheng Chun wearing a black robe in the hot August summer. Fortunately, he was walking in the mountains. If he walked on the street, he would definitely be pointed at.

Zheng Chun's hand was dragging a paper man the size of a palm. It was not too exquisitely crafted, and it hadn't even been painted. It was just a pale paper man.However, on its round head, two eyeballs were dotted on it, which were still scary blood-red eyes, and the painted eyeballs turned around, which was very horrifying!

What's even weirder is that the paper figurine uttered an unfamiliar language. The paper figurine was reporting the situation of going up the mountain to Zheng Chun, and Zheng Chun understood it, and communicated with it. .

He already knew that Mu Feng and Ying Ni had already visited three caves, but it was a pity that they were not caves with treasures.

That's right, Zheng Chun was monitoring Mu Feng's walking route.He has been in the mountains for many years, and he has already put down paper dolls in the caves he has been to. The caves are very dark, and if he does not check inch by inch, it is rare to find these paper dolls.And as soon as someone enters, these paper figurines will inform him.

Zheng Chun took out a map, which was densely packed with marks, recording the caves of the entire Yiwulu Mountain he had explored, and even a few tombs from the Liao Dynasty, but Zheng Chun was not interested in conventional tombs, even if this tomb belonged to Imperial Mausoleum.

Zheng Chun put a cross on the three caves that Mufeng and the others had visited just now, and he nodded with satisfaction. It seems that the route Mufeng took is correct. He has been waiting for someone to enter Jieshui Cave. It was the treasure cave that he had been thinking about for decades.Finally waiting for someone to enter that place!

Zheng Chunyin laughed, he was not afraid that these two people would dig out the treasure in the cave, if these two people didn't fight with the dangerous things in the cave, how could he benefit from it.

Since the death of Master, Zheng Chun has been looking for people who have the ability to enter Jieshui Cave. This time, two people came to their door. If they really fell asleep, someone gave them free pillows.

As for why Zheng Chun is so sure that Mu Feng and Ying Ni are capable people, this is what he heard from his mother, Sun Ling.

In fact, Sun Ling's postpartum mental state became very strange. He was always suspicious and his relationship with Huzi was getting worse and worse. Only when he treated his son Zheng Chun was better. This is explained by modern medical reasons as postpartum depression.But Huzi didn't understand this disease, and Sun Ling's condition got worse and worse if she didn't treat her in time.

Sun Ling learned the ancestral craft of making paper figurines, which is a part of the funeral industry at a shallow level, but at a deeper level, he can learn some spells.After Sun Ling entered the cottage, she also heard the story of Mu Junshi. Later, her spirit was not normal from time to time. Regardless of whether she was suitable or not, she even taught the ancestral craft to Zheng Chun, who was only six or seven years old, and told Zheng Chun about these mysterious things. .

He does not mean that.Zheng Chun wrote down everything Sun Ling said, and what Huzi was worried about was right. Zheng Chun was completely different from his younger brother Zheng Mu, and he was also different from Huzi. He was very smart since he was a child.

After Sun Ling's death, Zheng Chun got the opportunity to study as a teacher and entered the extraordinary world. He noticed that his master paid special attention to Yiwulu Mountain. His master seemed to be looking for a certain cave.And his master accepted Zheng Chun only because Zheng Chun grew up in the mountains and knew the terrain here very well, so he could help him find the target quickly.

Zheng Chun didn't mind his master's use at all. Although he was only ten years old back then, Huzi got married for the second time that year. Zheng Chun didn't stay at home all day, and he really wanted to get benefits from his master.

As far as the master himself said, he knows the techniques of Manchu shamanism. One of them is that the master is very good at paper-cutting. He can cut a piece of plain paper into various unimaginable beautiful pictures. It is said that paper has spirituality. Once you learn how to control it, you will be able to go deep into every corner of the world.

Zheng Chun learned the art of paper-cutting very quickly, and his master praised him for being very talented. Zheng Chun thought it might be because he had learned the relationship between paper-cutting people. The two seem to have nothing to do with each other, but they are both made of paper. article.

Zheng Chun walked up the mountain step by step, he just smiled heartlessly when he thought of his master who died a few years ago.In fact, he didn't think about monopolizing the treasures of Jieshui Cave at the beginning. Whoever let the master's skills fail to master, he failed in the fight but killed himself.Now that the master is dead, of course this good thing is left to the disciples.Now it's time for someone to fight with the things in the cave, and then let him pick up the bargain.

Although Zheng Chun still doesn't know what treasure is hidden in Jieshui Cave, it must be a treasure that can bring his power one step closer, otherwise why would Master have to get it after spending decades.

Although Mu Feng and Ying Ni on the mountain did not find the paper figurines hidden by Zheng Chun as eyeliners in each cave, Xiao Huang once again keenly felt this sense of surveillance without aura fluctuations. The object of suspicion - the paper man.

Mu Feng remembered a section of Liu Quan's "Records of Treasure Hunting". The treasurer Zhang only briefly introduced this section when translating it, because the three brothers and sisters Liu Quan and Liu Quan did not go to explore the treasure place.At that time, we were in a hurry, so Shopkeeper Zhang also briefly translated the situation that Liu Quan felt that they were being targeted by something inexplicable in one place, but after searching for a long time, he only saw some small paper figurines.

"Brother Ying, don't you think that our current situation is somewhat similar to a record in Liu Quan's diary. They entered a deserted old house. There was no one around, but they always felt that someone was watching them. Then They found that the house was weird. Although there were no living people there, there were paper dolls in every room. The paper dolls were very weird. When Liu Quan and the others wanted to leave, they came back to life without wind. Come over and attack Liu Quan and the others."

After hearing this, Ying Ni felt that Mu Feng's guess was probably right, "I remember Liu Quan said that these paper figurines are from Qimendiao! Lao Zhang hasn't translated in detail how they repelled the paper figurines. I just brought it up in one sentence, as if Liu Quan cut those flying paper figurines into pieces with a sharp knife."

"If it's really Qimendiao, I'm afraid it will be a little troublesome."

When Mu Feng said this to Ying Ni, they had already entered Jieshui Cave, where Xiao Huang strangely didn't feel that kind of surveillance anymore.

The name Jieshui Cave is what Zheng Chun and his master called this cave. Mu Feng didn't know it was called this cave. This cave is different from the previous caves they went to. It is not a natural cave, obviously. It was excavated manually and can be traced back to the Liao Dynasty.

The wooden seal of this hole has been here before, and the location of this hole is very hidden, surrounded by vines, hidden behind a small waterfall.At the beginning, the head of the family thought about using this place as a material storage hole, but later gave up because there were organs in it.

Jieshui Cave, as the name suggests, has Jie and water.Square ones are called monuments, and round ones are called tablet.

The cave itself is a bit deep with many twists and turns. Who would have thought that when they reached the end, they would find a stone with Khitan characters engraved on it. After arriving at the back of this Jieshi, there was a stone wall that looked like a tomb wall, and the two of them immediately gave up their plan to use it as a storage cave.Back then, there were not enough manpower during the war, so there was no time to dig a tomb.

But now in this cave, there is no feeling of being watched, which makes Mu Feng even more tense.There is something wrong in other caves, why is there nothing here?Could it be that people in the seven tunes can't go deep?

Speaking of Qimendiao, it is not a simple sect.

There are many kinds of folklore, one door of gold, two doors of skin, three doors of color, four doors of hanging, five doors of commentary, six doors of tuan, seven doors of tune, and eight doors of willow. People may not understand it at first glance. In order, in fact, there are fortune-tellers, medicine sellers, jugglers, martial arts performers, storytellers, cross talk talkers, tent-making and paper-making players, and drum-singers.

It's hard to say about the other ones, but the seven tunes are really very particular. The paper figurines are buried with the dead, which means that the paper figurines are buried with the living.It is rumored that the real paper-making master never puts eyes on the paper figurines, just like the finishing touch, if you put eyes on the paper figurines, the paper figurines will come alive!

Qimen trains kung fu on paper. They manipulate paper, transform it into a human form, and endow it with extraordinary power. One is to directly endow paper with the power of a living thing.

But I don't know if Xiao Huang felt that the paper figurines who monitored them were made by Qimentiao, and why there were no paper figurines here to continue monitoring?

"I can feel that Qin Ni's things should be here." Ying Ni felt the resonance wave, and behind this stone wall is Qin Ni's hidden treasure, and now he must go in and take a look.
