After saying this, Jiang Ruoxu didn't want to speak any more.

What does "that person is with us" mean?

Pei Zhen took Baili Jueming's hand and climbed onto the platform, looking around without a trace.Yu Tingqiu stood on the other side and looked down, Mu Zhishen held the knife and closed his eyes to rest his mind, and in the distance was the Immortal Lord who was looking forward, all of them shrunk their necks, looking at Baili Jueming with a bit of resentment in their eyes.You don't need to guess to know that these people all hope that Baili Jueming will be trapped in the ghost country and never return to the human world.

Where is "that person"?Is he hiding among these people?

The hanging platform descends slowly.The bottomless fissure engulfed them, and the kingdom of ghosts rushed towards them.Earth Fissure is the "virtual door" that the evil boy split open in order to escape from the ghost country. The evil boy has strong spiritual power. After hundreds of years, this virtual door still exists today.This is where the map left by Baili Jueming was located. They had to travel westward through the ghost country according to the map to reach West Nanda.

Entering the ghost country again, the sky is as dark as ever, like a big cauldron held on top of the head.The dense rain of arrows shoots towards the jungle. Looking around, there are shadows and shadows, and it is difficult to distinguish the way forward. The octagonal glazed pagoda in the distance is also covered in the dark rain and fog, and it is not clear at all.They were all ready, and all of them put on coir raincoats.On the first day of junior high school, we held up an umbrella, and everyone gathered under the umbrella to identify the map and directions.Determine the way to go, ready to go.It was impossible for the carriage to pass through the dense jungle. The ghost attendants pulled out the horses and loaded the golden arrows and dry food on the horses' backs.One person and one horse, running quickly.

They had to cross the ghost country as quickly as possible before the ghost mother found them.

The former Baili Jueming marked on the map that the ghost mother's spells only work in the Yinmu Village, as long as you don't enter the village, most of the time it is safe.The trouble is that the field of vision in the woods is narrow and dark, and with the torrential rain, basically nothing can be seen clearly.With limited vision, he could only follow Ma Mengtou in front.

At the same time, in order to avoid encountering ghosts hitting the wall, Pei Zhen made a rule to stop every two hours and carve marks on the tree trunks.He brought fluorescent cinnabar, which is not afraid of water and does not fade, and is a common marking pigment for fairy gates.After coloring with cinnabar, the marks are very conspicuous, especially in the dark jungle, like ghost eyes shining red.If you see the same mark on the way forward, it means that they have encountered a ghost hitting the wall.The number of people should also be counted regularly, so that no one in Daheitian falls behind or runs away.It was agreed that if someone falls behind, they will wait for the large force at the last mark.

The journey went smoothly, and I didn't meet the ghost mother, nor did I meet any other strange ghosts.The only accident was that a horse fell into a ditch, all the golden arrows on the horse fell into the ditch, and a ghost servant was injured in his leg.The ditch was too hidden and covered with fallen banana leaves, so no one noticed it.The ghost waiter climbed up, Pei Zhen treated his wound, and found a pale broken bone inserted into his leg.

Baili Jueming went down to explore, and came back and said, "The bottom of the ditch is full of bones."

Mu Zhishen found a pile of stones half a person's height on the west side of the ditch, piled up in the shape of a small hill, with a colorful flag tied on top of it.Pei Zhen looked at the pile of stones, and said: "This is the tomb of the Masang people." He picked up the colored flag with a dagger, "This is their logo, and there is a tracking spell drawn on it, indicating that they only store the bones here temporarily. I have to come back to pick it up in the future. This should be left behind by Masang when the ghost mother went abroad 300 years ago. It is not so much a westward migration as an escape. They fled too hastily, and there was no time to collect the remains when someone died on the way To hold a funeral, you can only throw it in the ditch, and set up this stone pile sign, so that you can come back to collect the corpse in the future."

There is another sentence that Pei Zhen didn't say, the bones are still in the ghost country, which means that the Marsang people will never come back.Maybe they are timid and don't want to enter the ghost country again.However, according to Pei Zhen's understanding of Ma Sang from reading the scriptures, this group puts more death than life, and it is absolutely impossible for them to leave the remains of their ancestors in the ditch unless it is absolutely necessary.In other words, the place where the Masang people went may be more dangerous than the ghost country, so dangerous that this ancient tribe could never come out after entering there.

When the Masang people went west, Pei Zhen frowned. Could it be that they were going to West Nanda?

Moving on, they encountered five identical stone piles.Many Masang people died during the migration. According to Pei Zhen's deduction and examination of the bones, most of the dead were elderly people over 60 years old.It should be that he could not bear the arduous journey, and died of illness due to exhaustion.There are a large number of corpses near all the stone piles, and the Masang people really failed to return to the ghost country to collect corpses.

When they came across the sixth cairn, they stopped to rest.The Tianji sundial has already turned around, indicating that they have been running non-stop for a day.Pei Zhen used the heart lock to ask the ghost servants who stayed in Xunzhou, and they said that more than two days had passed outside.Sure enough, the time inside the ghost country is different from the outside.Fortunately, the gap in the passage of time is not very large, so there is no need to worry that after they go out, a hundred years have passed in the human world.

The rain has stopped, but the sky is still dark.After a day of hard work, everyone went to rest separately.Especially Pei Zhen, Mu Zhishen and Yu Tingqiu, who are mortal bodies after all, fell asleep as soon as their heads hit the ground.It was pitch black all around, and they were afraid that the ghost mother would find her whereabouts, so they didn't even dare to light a bonfire.Baili Jueming sat next to Pei Zhen, silently releasing the lowered earth fire.The surrounding area became much warmer, and the humid air gradually became dry.The cold air outside met the airflow baked by Baili Cassia, forming a thin layer of white mist.

Baili Xiaoji struggled out of Baili Cassia's sleeve, grabbed his arm and jumped onto the top of his head, then combed his wet down feathers with his small pointed beak.This crazy chicken was found in Pei Zhen's bag. Pei Zhen was very innocent and said that he didn't know how Baili Xiaoji was in his bag.Anyway, this chicken is crazy, and it is not unusual to appear anywhere.The trouble is that it is Xunwei's chicken, and Baili Jueming has to watch it.When going out, the hair of Baili Cassia has become its nest.

This crazy chicken doesn't shed hair, does it?Baili Jueming thought depressingly.

Pei Zhen didn't sleep deeply, but when he sensed the heat, he woke up slowly.Opening his eyes, he saw the profile of Baili Jueming.

Pei Zhen moved closer to Baili Cassia with a smile, tilted his head, and leaned on his shoulder, Pei Zhen thanked him softly: "Thank you, senior, for being my heater."

The warm body pressed against Baili Jueming's arm, and Baili Jueming's body stiffened instantly.

He turned his face away, and muttered uncomfortably: "I hate wet places, so the release of 'Earth Shahuo' is not for you."

His words were too obvious, Pei Zhen smiled and took off his hairband.As soon as the hair tie was loosened, like a waterfall of black hair, it fell on Baili Cassia's shoulders.Master is used to being tough-tongued, earlier he swallowed the hair tie in a hurry, but now the hair tie is gone.Ghosts only eat blood and souls, and they can't eat food from living people, let alone hair bands that even living people can't eat?

He probably picked his throat and vomited it up and threw it away. The smile on Pei Zhen's lips deepened. Shizun is the cutest ghost in the world.Lowering his eyes, he tied the hairband on Baili Jueming's wrist, and whispered in his ear: "Pei Zhen has nothing, so let's give him a hairband as a gift to senior. In the future, seniors don't have to cover it up with their sleeves, just show it generously." .”

Baili Jueming's cheeks were hot, and he deliberately pretended not to care, and snorted, "A token of love? You're pretty good at it."

His face was burning more and more, Pei Zhen got too close, and the fragrance of his hair made the beast in Baili Jueming's heart want to move.Needing to find something to do to divert attention, Baili Jueming began to count the number of people to make sure no one was left behind.Next to the horses were five ghost servants, the first, second, and third graders sat around under a banana tree, Mu Zhishen sat cross-legged on the other side with his eyes closed, and Yu Tingqiu leaned against the roots of an old banyan tree, burying his head. falling asleep.

No more, no less, plus Baili Jueming and Pei Zhen, a total of 12 people is just right.

Well, no one is left behind.

At this moment, a dark human head protruded from behind the tree roots Yu Tingqiu was leaning on.The distance was too far, and Yu Tingqiu happened to be sitting on the edge of the mist.The man's head was so dark that it was shrouded in hazy mist, so he couldn't see his face clearly.Baili Jueming was startled, rubbed his eyes, and looked carefully, there was indeed a vague figure in the mist.

Did you count the wrong number?Baili Jueming counted again, one, two, three, four... plus Yu Tingqiu was indeed 12 people, so who is the person behind Yu Tingqiu?

The man was leaning behind Yu Tingqiu, with his back to back with Yu Tingqiu, looking very strange.Yu Tingqiu was fast asleep, with his head down, unaware.Baili Jueming pushed Pei Zhen, Pei Zhen opened his eyes, Baili Jueming pointed to the thing behind Yu Tingqiu, and mouthed to Pei Zhen:

"There is one more person."

Pei Zhen immediately woke up and stood up together with Baili Jueming.The two of them kept their expressions on each other, one on the left and the other on the right, they groped towards the thing behind Yu Tingqiu's head.In order not to startle the snake, he deliberately avoided the sleeping Yu Tingqiu, lest she wake up and scare the thing behind her away.

The distance was shortened step by step, Baili Caesar walked around the old banyan tree from the right, and slowly pulled out Jiushie.The piercing knife light passed over the thing's face, and it felt very alert. It raised its head instantly, and faced Baili Jueming face to face.Both of them were startled at this moment, Baili Jueming saw Yu Tingqiu's face in front of him.

"Baili Jueming," Yu Tingqiu stared at his hand on the hilt, the ancestral sword in his arms gave off a murderous look, "Are you out of your mind again?"

Baili Jueming was stunned, the one behind the tree root was Yu Tingqiu, who was the one in front?

Pei Zhen walked around the roots of the tree, and the woman in the red skirt slowly stood up behind him.They turned their faces on the first day and the second day, just in time to see the woman standing up.It was an extremely strange posture, the waist was straightened first, and then the upper body slowly stood upright.Every inch she stood upright, the joints made a cracking sound, as if a bone stick was rubbing against her body.She straightened up, her black-haired face pressed against Pei Zhen's shoulder, her jet-black hair parted silently, revealing a wide mouth with two rows of sharp fangs.

No one would fail to recognize this ghost. In the Mu Family Ghost Fort, she followed Baili Jueming closely, always wearing a red dress, with black hair covering her face and a tragic appearance.

The pupils of all the ghost attendants narrowed in an instant, and they shouted: "Lang Jun!"

"Pei Zhen!" Baili Jue's eyes were about to burst.

Pei Zhenzhen was ready to go, but Baili Jueming was one step ahead of him.The figure flashed in front of his eyes like lightning, Baili Jueming embraced Pei Zhen, and the fangs of the ghost mother bit into his forearm.Severe pain spread all over his body, and he moaned.

Pei Zhen fell into Baili Jueming's arms, and before he could turn his head, he heard the ghost mother hiss and ran into the grass.This female ghost was so fast that Baili Jueming didn't even react.He hasn't made a move yet, why is that female ghost running?

Looking down at his hand, his right arm was dripping with blood, Pei really held his arm, his face turned pale.

"Senior..." Pei Zhen's voice was hoarse.

Although he was injured, seeing Pei Zhen caring about him, Baili Jueming felt very relieved.

"It's okay, it will be fine in a while." He shook his hand, frowned and stared at the direction where the ghost mother left, "Pei Zhen, why does the ghost mother always want to kill you?"

Previously, when the ghost mother visited Tiandu Mountain at night, she did not murder Baili Cassia, but targeted Pei Zhen.It's the same now, when he wanted to sneak attack Pei Zhen, he ran away when he saw Baili Jueming.It is not uncommon for her to be afraid of Baili Jueming, what kind of character he is, even the ghost mother would be afraid of his name.But what about Pei Zhen?Well done, why did she tease him so many times?

Turning his head to look at Pei Zhen, he also looked like he was meditating with his brows locked.

Baili Jueming asked again: "I was almost bitten, are you afraid?"

Pei Zhen wanted to say "not afraid", but when he saw Baili Jueming's tail cocked and waiting to show off his prestige, he frowned and said, "Of course I'm terribly afraid, senior must protect me."

"I knew you were frightened, kid," Baili Jueming pinched his face and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm protecting you."

The whereabouts have been discovered by the ghost mother, and there is nothing to hide.Everyone lit a bonfire and sat around in a group to prevent the ghost mother from mixing into the crowd again.Baili Jueming asked Yu Tingqiu to change a skirt, but Yu Tingqiu closed his eyes and meditated and ignored him.Mu Zhishen silently took out a black jacket and covered Yu Tingqiu.

Pei Zhen went to the horse's side to get dry food, opened the bundle, and saw two bloody Masang feather insect seals under the wrapping cloth:

fraud.

The strokes are defective, and the shape of the characters can be roughly seen. The person who wrote these two characters should not be very conscious.

Looking over the horse's back, the master seemed to be talking to Yu Tingqiu, but he was paying attention to himself from the corner of his eye.Master was afraid that he would be hurt by the ghost mother, so he was too temperamental and awkward, so he only watched him secretly.He went to relieve himself in the grass, and the master quietly followed behind, like a beast peeping at others going to the toilet.He tore off the cloth of the burden calmly, threw it into the ditch beside the corpse, wrapped the burden again with a piece of clothing, and then returned to Master's side.

Only then did Baili Jueming close his eyes, and rested on his side.
