The villain's deadly support

"But why do you have to close the window?" Wen Chuchu couldn't understand the behavior of the two brothers, she felt uneasy, turned her head to look at Shen Qinglian, and then snuggled into the big brother's arms.

The three people who were resting in the inn still couldn't figure out what happened at this time. The moment the store closed, they saw many retail merchants running through the street with their shoulder poles and ox carts.

Not long after, the three of them sitting in the dimly lit inn heard a gloomy wind whistling.

"Hey! Shopkeeper, what's going on here?" Ran Ji impatiently grabbed the fat man who was running around and asked, but she heard the wind outside the house crying and howling, the doors and windows were rattling, and there were still people on the street. People's uneasy voices came and went.

"Three ladies, don't open the windows in this weather, it will really torment the dead!" The shopkeeper went to the counter in a daze, took a candlestick to the back kitchen to light it, and placed it on Wen Chuchu's table. .

At this time, if the time is not yet noon, it is reasonable to say that it should be the brightest time in the room during the day, but this store has sealed the doors and windows, and another waiter is still holding a torn quilt to fill the gap between the doors and windows , as if without leaving any gaps.

Wen Chuchu didn't know why, after experiencing all kinds of weird atmospheres in the town, although she didn't know what happened, she felt that the town was very gloomy, with an ominous atmosphere everywhere, even if she was already by the boss's side, Still got goosebumps all over his body.

"Dabai's Tianfeng Gate, it's fine if it's closed, but you still have to tuck it in with a quilt? It's getting more and more strange." Ran Ji turned her head, and saw that the fat shopkeeper had already lit a small candle with the help of a candle. Three sticks of incense were lit in the Buddhist hall, and the shopkeeper folded his hands together and muttered eloquently: "Namo Amitabha, Namo Amitabha..."

"Boss, let's go back to the cave to avoid it." Wen Chuchu's fingertips were cold, and her back was pressed tightly against Shen Qinglian's arms, but she still felt very uneasy, as if there were filth dormant everywhere in this dark hall. Things that will drag them into hell at any moment.

"Hey, fat man!" Seeing that he was burning incense and worshiping Buddha, Ran Ji refused to speak out, impatiently revealing her original vicious temper, she grabbed the shopkeeper by the back collar and dragged the fat man to the store. In front of their table, "Grandma doesn't have that much patience. If you ask me anything, you can just say what you want, and why do these mysterious things!"

"The chivalrous woman is merciful! You don't know! Only in this way can the evil spirit be blocked. It's not some small god talking about it. This... hey, it's really a small one who has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai. I'm afraid it will frighten all the nobles." The fat man bowed with his hands together, but Ran Ji threw his hands on the side of the table.

"Demon girl." Shen Qingxian was the first to discover the strangeness.

"What are you doing!" Ran Ji was only focused on arguing with the shopkeeper, she didn't notice Shen Qinglian's strangeness at all, she turned her head in doubt, and saw that Shen Qinglian had raised her sleeve to cover her warm mouth and nose.

"It smells strange." Shen Qingxian stared intently at the closed door. At this time, there was a gust of wind, and the wind whirled across the street, making a "whimper and whimper" sound. With the sound of crying, Shen Qingxian's brows became more and more wrinkled tighter.

"What?" Ran Ji raised her head and sniffed the air. Her nose was not as sharp as Shen Qingxian's. After sniffing for a while, she didn't find anything unusual. It's just that there were no other people in the inn except the five of them. He was dead, but the red candle enshrined in front of the Buddhist hall swayed and made a sudden sound of explosion, which made the fat man sweat profusely and tremble all over.

"It's Yin soldiers crossing the street..." The fat man might have been too nervous, and his voice changed tone, and his fat body was trembling at this moment.

As for the weird smell that Shen Qingxian mentioned before, Ran Ji couldn't smell it, and Wen Chuchu naturally couldn't smell anything weird. She hugged the boss's sleeve tightly to hold her breath, and her eyes naturally searched for the brightest corner in the room. But the Buddhist hall was not only not reassuring, but it made the atmosphere even more eerie.

"Fuck, this is the smell of death!" Ran Ji finally smelled the weird smell, "Fatty man, how dare you play tricks!"

Ran Ji's first reaction was what the two brothers were up to. She turned her head and pulled out three chopsticks from the chopstick bucket. She swung her arms and beat them, and the three chopsticks accurately interrupted the incense head.

"I can't help it, girl!!!" The shop waiter hurried to arrive, but it was too late.

But since the incense head has been extinguished, it stands to reason that the strange smell in the room should fade away in a short while. However, the smell of death not only did not fade away, it even became stronger and stronger, even Wen Chuchu, who has the most dull senses, has already smelled it That unusual stench.

Wen Chuchu smelled the death smell in Ranji's mouth once. At that time, she was on a business trip to study abroad, and the small dormitory she rented was cut off because she forgot to pay the electricity bill. At that time, she left for more than a month and returned home When I got home, the beef frozen in the refrigerator had already smelled like soup, which was very similar to the smell at this time.

It was a smell that was difficult for people to ignore. It was not only pungent, but also hot and teary. It was different from any smell, and it was a stench that could directly hit the brain. The first time Wen Chuchu opened the refrigerator to deal with rotten beef, it was This kind of similar smell hits the face, that kind of smell, as long as it is smelled once, it can give people an extremely strong impact, and it lingers for a long time, every time she thinks about it, Wen Chuchu still feels sick in her heart.

"Boss, it's a rotten smell." Wen Chuchu hurriedly patted her chest to dispel the nausea.

Although all the doors and windows in the inn had been blocked at this time, the house was old after all, and the wooden structure was not considered airtight. At this time, with the gusts of ghostly wind howling, everyone in the room was choked so that their faces turned green.

"Fatty, tell me honestly, what's going on!"

The storekeeper was startled by Ranji, his whole body trembled, and he quickly said, "This is the ghosts from Zhaixingling parading the streets. You don't know about it, about two months ago. There was a fierce battle in Zhaixingling behind this town. At that time, there were evil spirits descending into the world. The enlightened master Ye Long once led a group of monks into the mountain to punish the evil. The battle lasted for three days and three nights, and the blood of Zhaixingling was shed. In the end, Master Ye Long alarmed the gods by sacrificing his body, and sent down dozens of thunderbolts to punish the evil, and finally put an end to the disaster of Zhaxingling."

Hearing this, Ran Ji couldn't help but glanced at Shen Qingxian and Wen Chuchu, assuming that it was indeed because Wen Chuchu triggered the thunder that caused a disaster, but the corpse was blown up long ago, why not? Can it still emit such a stench?What's more, more than two months have passed, no matter how bad the government is, it is impossible to dispose of those corpses in two months?

"Isn't it right, the store?" Ran Ji always felt that something was wrong, "It's been smelly for more than two months, and the government didn't intervene? Let the corpse stink, and you're not afraid of causing an epidemic?"

The fat man quickly waved his hand, "It's not that I don't care, it's that I don't dare to."

"At the beginning, the government sent several groups of people up the mountain, but the people who went there never returned. Later, no one dared to set foot in the mountain over there. It's not that the government didn't think of a way, and invited respected people Some Taoist priests came to try to resolve their grievances, but I heard from the old Taoist that the mountain is full of ghosts and ghosts, making it difficult for people to walk. If a living person enters, they will be dragged by ghosts and cannot get out. The number is terrifying, which is already a practice There is no way to dispel it." The fat man shook his head.

Beside him, the younger brother of the store Xiaoer also took the words, "It was even worse before January, the stench lingered all day long, and even the woodcutters and hunters dared not go up the mountain. Now it is much better. , Only when it is windy and rainy, the stench will rush into the town at the foot of the mountain, business is sluggish, if there is a place to hide, no one wants to stay in such a place."

"Demon girl." Shen Qingxian who was listening quietly from the side finally spoke.

"what?"

"Chuchu is about to vomit, we are going back to rest, will you come?" Shen Qinglian helped Wen Chuchu stand up.

Ran Ji nodded, obviously no longer interested in what the store said, so she lightly jumped to Shen Qingxian's side, "Hui Hui Hui, this smell is really disgusting."

The three girls from the shop went up the stairs to go back to the room, and they still didn't forget to ask, "Ladies, please don't open the windows!"

After returning to the room, Shen Qingxuan directly opened the passage leading to the cave, and the three of them quickly jumped into the cave, quickly sealed the foul-smelling clothes in the bucket, and washed them again, only to feel that the smell had faded Some.

When Wen Chuchu finished washing up, Shen Qingxian and Ran Ji seemed to be discussing something solemnly.

Seeing Wen Chuchu approaching, they all silently silenced, and looked at her, which aroused Wen Chuchu's curiosity, "What were you talking about just now?"

"Chuchu, I plan to go to Zhaixing Ridge with the demon girl again." Shen Qinglian raised his hand and sat down beside Wen Chuchu.

But when Wen Chuchu heard it, her complexion changed a lot, "The smell of corpses on the mountain must be a hundred times stronger than that at the bottom, so don't go."

"There are things I need on the mountain, not to mention..." Shen Qinglian pondered for a moment, then turned his gaze to Ran Ji, "In your opinion, how many people can emit such a stench?"

Ran Ji was also in trouble. She shook her head and said uncertainly: "It's hard to say. At that time, Chuchu and I were chased by people. There should not be many people, at most a hundred people? Then something happened, the two of us When we went back, they were all broken arms and stumps, so it’s impossible to have such power, right?”

"I was captured at that time. I felt that there were 200 people present that day, but I heard them discussing at that time. It seemed that there was an internal strife, and a group of people did not enter the mountain." Wen Chuchu recalled the time as much as possible. The situation, "And at that time, Ling Qingcheng also had internal strife with the group of people who arrested me, and finally went to track down the traces of the demon girl alone."

"So, you can only know what the situation is like by going up the mountain. Ran Ji is good at Gu, she can direct the Gu insects to find what we need as quickly as possible, she is not fast enough alone, so I have to take her Go up the mountain." After saying that, Shen Qinglian turned his head and looked at Wen Chuchu helplessly, "Chuchu, this time you stay at the foot of the mountain, Ran Ji and I will go, and come back when we find what we need."

"I'll go with you!" Wen Chuchu rejected Shen Qinglian's proposal without thinking.

"No, the mountain is too dangerous, and with you and Ran Ji at the same time, our speed is not fast enough, and we will still be trapped in the mountain." Shen Qingxian did not approve of Wen Chuchu's idea this time.

"I can become a fox!"
