?? "Guest officers,? It's so late, is there anything in our small shop that makes you dissatisfied?" The tall and thin shopkeeper dismissed the shop assistant and chatted with the four of them alone.

?? "Store, don't panic,? We just want to ask you something." Liu Feng explained with a smile,? At this time, the staff had already lit all the candles around, and the whole small shop was much brighter.

"What's the matter?" The tall and thin storekeeper immediately became vigilant, and stared at the four people up and down, because they belonged to the same cultivators, so they were all wearing Pai Nei Dao uniforms.

??A discerning person can see at a glance that the origins of these people are extraordinary, and it is absolutely impossible for them to be ordinary mortals.

??Xiao Tiancheng stood aside, seeming to have seen some clues, but he chose to be as discreet as Yu Shuyao.

?? "We just want to ask, how long has it been since you opened this store at the foot of the mountain? There are people coming and going these days? Has anything strange happened?" It stands to reason that something just happened on the mountain Some tragic things, so many practitioners have died, the bodies may not be buried in time,? Isn't there any news of such a serious matter leaked here?

??The tall and thin shop owner started to panic, he said hesitantly, "This... this... I mean, my fellows... My small shop is all about losing money...I will deal with other outside matters. But I don't care...I...I don't know anything..."

?? The owner's reaction? Obviously abnormal. Xiao Tiancheng, as a character who has time-traveled into the novel, naturally understands the routine of the plot.

??The shopkeeper didn't want to say it, and Liu Feng was embarrassed... Just when everyone was at a loss, Xiao Tiancheng suddenly showed a fierce look and threatened viciously, "Shopkeeper, if you don't tell the truth, don't blame us for being cruel It's over..." After that, he was about to draw his sword to face each other!

??The store owner immediately exclaimed, and took a few steps back covering his head. The shop assistant who was cleaning at the side saw this posture, and naturally couldn't help but scrambled up!

??Seeing the tall and skinny shopkeeper wanting to leave, Xiao Tiancheng held down his arm and firmly blocked his way!

?? "Want to escape? Don't you look at who we are!" As soon as the words fell, the rattan weaving of the stool had already tightly entangled the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper, making them unable to move!

?? "Brother Tiancheng! We can't do this!" Hanyu was the most benevolent and kind-hearted among them, seeing this situation, he couldn't help but open his mouth to stop him.

?? "Guests, please forgive me! I'm just an ordinary citizen. It's not easy to open a shop here... I... There are old and young in my family..." The face of the shopkeeper was pale, but his limbs were still intact. Not dynamic.

"Brother Tiancheng, let me figure it out, he really doesn't seem to know anything." Even Liu Feng also spoke, and now Xiao Tiancheng could only let the stool spirit loosen his restraints, and turned to talk to Yu Shu Haruka looked at each other, revealing from the latter's expression that he was indeed impulsive.

?? "You can forgive me, but I hope you can explain why I was in the room just now and heard my friends and their conversations, but I couldn't see them?" If the shopkeeper doesn't know anything, ask tactfully He is useless, it would be faster to get straight to the point...

??As soon as the stool spirit loosened its restraint, the shopkeeper and the staff collapsed on the ground exhausted. When they heard Xiao Tiancheng's question, they all couldn't help but fell silent.

?? "Don't you even say this? I think you are really looking for a dead end..." Xiao Tiancheng couldn't understand why Hanyu stopped him just now. In his opinion, he just used some tricks to force that The two of them spoke the truth, but they didn't know how to do it... Now, even if the two of them were desperate, they couldn't do anything.

?? "Guest officer... I... tell you the truth... In fact... our store's business... has not been very good..." The shopkeeper sighed, revealing in his eyes With a bleak and sad look...

"How do you say that?" Hanyu asked modestly, and then said, "Just now my brother acted too urgently, but it was also because our partner who was traveling with us has been lost for a long time... so the clues you provided It's very important to us... I hope you can forgive me, the shopkeeper, for how much I offended you just now."

??The store owner was originally in a panic-stricken mood, but he was relieved a lot after hearing this, but his face was still pale. Seeing this, Xiao Tiancheng immediately helped him up.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no..." The tall and thin store owner was helped up by Xiao Tiancheng, and he sat on the stool again. He really had lingering fears about this person who had just been rough on him ah...

?? "Tell me quickly, what is going on?" Liu Feng urged.

?? "Hey... It's strange to say... We set up shop at the foot of this mountain more than ten years ago. At first, there were only some butchers here, and hunters went up the mountain to hunt, and our business was not good.. .But I don’t know which day it was, but there was a news...that someone dug a gold mine on the top of this mountain..."

"Gold mine?" Xiao Tiancheng was puzzled, but when they were on the mountain before, they had never seen any rare treasures... let alone a gold mine...

?? "Yeah... The news spreads ten times, ten times, and hundreds of people, naturally more and more people want to go to the mountain to mine... And the business of my small shop has suddenly exploded!" When he said this, the shopkeeper's face was full of excited smiles, as if looking back on the past, this was something that really lifted his spirits.

?? "Then, what then?"

?? "At that time, I also wanted to go up the mountain to find out. You also know that no matter how good our business is here, it is just a small business... But if we dig gold ore, we can sell it in the market down the mountain Now, maybe in the future I will be able to live a life without worrying about food and clothing.”

"Then, you also dug it?" Seeing the shopkeeper talking about the gold mine, showing wealth in his eyes, Liu Feng couldn't help feeling contemptuous... There are not a few greedy people in this world...

?? "No...!" The shopkeeper couldn't help but feel distressed, "I went late, when I went up the mountain, the ore had been dug up completely. I didn't believe that there would be gold on the mountain, so I thought When those people really dug it up before going up the mountain, who knows, at the stall where I hesitated, all the gold had already been dug away..."

?? "That's such a pity... The gold has been dug out, and your business is deserted again?" Xiao Tiancheng asked.

??The shopkeeper nodded, "Not only that, but some weird things happened in my shop."

??He paused, and then continued, "At first, several guest officials responded to me, saying that our shop is haunted. At night, I kept hearing people talking in my ears, but I couldn't see them..."

?? The hearts of the four were shocked. Isn't this... the strange thing they encountered just now?

?? "When did this happen?"

?? "Uh, let me think about it..." the shopkeeper thought for a while, and then said, "The incident of the gold mine should have been three years ago, but the haunting happened within half a month after that."

?? "That is to say, it took those miners only ten days and a half months to dig out all the ore on the mountain, and then, ghosts began to happen in your shop?" Han Yu sorted out After reading what the shopkeeper said, he continued to ask.

"Yes, since then, our business has been deserted a lot, and in a blink of an eye, no one has gone up to the mountain to stay in the hotel for several days."

?? "Aside from hearing people talking but not seeing people, are there other strange things?"

?? The store owner quickly shook his head and explained, "No, no, this is by no means nothing. If you want to say that my store is blamed here, nothing more serious has ever happened." He said more serious things, Nature refers to the occurrence of human life.

?? "That's really strange... Why did something strange happen to you after you dug a gold mine?" Everyone was puzzled and couldn't figure it out.

?? At this time, Yu Shuyao, who hadn't opened his mouth all this time, suddenly asked, "You went up the mountain and wanted to mine, how did you know that all the gold ore had been dug out? Could it be that you turned over the top of the mountain?" How can the shopkeeper prove that all the ore on the mountain has been dug clean in a short period of time?

??As soon as this remark came out, the four people who were puzzled couldn't help but wake up... Yes, isn't the source of the problem just the matter of gold mining?

??Because of the cause of the gold mining incident, the result of being haunted will appear.

??The shop owner has seen through his mind, so naturally he can't hide it anymore. He continued, "Indeed, with the two of me and my buddy, it is naturally impossible to search the entire mountain, but you also know that the place where the gold is buried There was no grass growing around, when the two of us rushed to the mountain, there were patches of weeds all over the place, and the remaining barren land had been dug three feet into the ground.”

?? "When we were on the mountain before, we clearly saw that weeds were overgrown everywhere. We didn't expect that in just two or three years, the mountain that was dug in had been restored to a flat terrain, and the Weeds have grown again." Recalling that when they walked the mountain road with the practitioners of Qingyun Mountain, they didn't notice the strangeness of the terrain at all...

"Shuyao, what did you think of?" Xiao Tiancheng couldn't help looking at Yu Shuyao who was beside him thoughtfully.

?? "I just wonder...why the mountain is hollowed out, and the inn at the foot of the mountain will be haunted, it sounds like it touched the gods of the mountain, or disturbed the ghosts, so , in this store, did you get retribution?" After Yu Shuyao finished saying this, the storekeeper immediately turned pale and yelled for mercy.

?? "No, no, no, this... This is absolutely impossible... Ah! Is it really because we have greed that we have to suffer this retribution? But we really don't do anything!"

??The sound of howling ghosts and wolves broke through the tranquility of the night, and the guys at the side couldn't help crying together...!
